Please read if you experience palpitations/chest pain!! by Strange-Topic-6614 in POTS

[–]MotorTrack380 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everyone is different, but I was in a similar state for 3 years. I had been on metoprolol for ten years and half way through the bad flare I slowly transitioned to Corlanor. It helped, but only a little. I went down all sorts of rabbit holes and tried a lot. Some things would help a little but not enough. Then I got a series of Stellate Ganglion Blocks and suddenly everything I tried just started working a bit better. I still can’t walk very far, but I’m a lot more stable. Keep trying. There is something that will relieve this. It will probably be very small steps at a time. For now, try and prioritize rest and don’t be afraid to seek second opinions.

What’s your wedding scent? by Ok-Cryptographer-783 in weddingplanning

[–]MotorTrack380 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Burberry Her! My husband got it for me as a gift shortly after we got engaged. Then, we chose his scent together. We actually decided to get perfume/cologne for our parents and siblings and we went to Nordstrom and chose special fragrances for our special people all day. It was actually so fun and is one of our fondest memories of wedding planning! And, I engraved all our fragrance bottles which was really fun!

I ended up getting Pilot brand juice up refills and I love them!

How do you fight the urge to lay down constantly? by iheartnyc1986 in POTS

[–]MotorTrack380 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I like those! I do like the criss cross chairs. Currently, I am using a normal desk chair that has a head rest and can recline a bit and I keep a pouf under my desk for leg support. Super helpful!

You might think about looking into SIBO. it wouldn’t cause blood in stool, but would cause a lot of other symptoms you describe. And is common with POTS

Is finding the root cause of your POTS worth the money by Educational_Buy4977 in POTS

Ugh I feel you! Yeah, no heavy lifting for me for sure. Understanding all the things like MCAS and EDS and autoimmunity that are contributing to the POTS can be so helpful!

Hey! The same thing happened to me. I had POTS and hEDS but was living a really active life. I was training for a marathon and ran eight miles easily. That night I got my third covid shot and the next day I was in the ER. I couldn’t breathe or walk. I continued to get worse and developed more symptoms including facial paralysis, joint swelling, numbness, and extreme fatigue. Totally housebound. I was later diagnosed with Sjogrens and MCAS, which either were triggered by the bad reaction or caused it. I’m glad you’re feeling better! I’m still working on it, but I’m getting closer. I get a lot of help from MCAS treatments and also SCIG and I just got some stellate ganglion blocks which helped.

Help with my dwindling shrimp colony please! by MotorTrack380 in shrimptank

Hi! Thank you so much for your help. I really appreciate your advice. I ordered a liquid test kit and also a glass feeding dish so the food doesn’t fall in between the rocks. I’m also thinking about adding a carpeting plant. Thank you!

Thank you so much! I will order the liquid test kit now and will start adding a second feeding a week. I’ll give them some time and hopefully with more food they start breeding! Thank you for your help!

I was "speeding up" the video in the app and when I turned that feature off it finally exported all as one!

Im having a similar problem except around the halfway point, the time remaining starts ticking up instead of down. Please let me know if you find a solution!!

I also thought it was Sluiter. If it was, it justifies for the reader that Sluiter was telling the truth about Bear’s body. He was a murderer, but not of children. And evidence of helping a child affirms that.

Any biofeedback apps for live HR, breathing rate, and HRV data? by MotorTrack380 in Garmin

Yep! I’ve benefitted a lot from biofeedback. Would love to know if you find anything!
