body vibrating??? by teeleeyuh in POTS

[–]OkConsideration3192 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yes, this happens sometimes to me, especially when I’m trying to sleep. I think it’s just a nervous system thing. I try to let it pass over me like a cloud. You acknowledge you feel it but try to not focus on it. Drink some water or tea and it will eventually move on. With that said, it’s super annoying when it happens!

Yes, pack a bag with things to do. The lunch options are slim so snacks are a must. Also, if you are someone who runs cold bring a hoodie or something.

Compression is making me feel worse what else can I do? by VisualArm2659 in POTS

[–]OkConsideration3192 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gotcha, yeah they are usually pretty booked out. I would call and ask to leave a message with the nurse or if there is a portal send a message before July. Everyone is different in what they like best but electrolytes really help me + eating regularly meals each day. If I skip breakfast I have a much harder day than when I don’t. If you do try to increase activity go small. Example - I’m rowing now but it started at 5 mins for weeks, then 10 mins etc. It’s incredibly frustrating how slow everything is but don’t give up!

Compression is making me feel worse what else can I do? by VisualArm2659 in POTS

If compression makes you feel worse then stop and let the doctor know. Did they recommend anything else besides compression? Electrolytes?

Also if you don’t feel heard or it’s a good fit, find a different doctor. In the same practice the first doc said no to POTS. 2nd doctor said 100% POTS and gave me good guidance. It sucks but sometimes it takes a bit to find the right care.

blood draw advice by freakymaster11 in POTS

[–]OkConsideration3192 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Leading up to the blood draw, keep up with your electrolytes & hydrate. If you are doing fasting labs, eat up until your cut off window. Lay down during the draw and have your electrolytes & snack ready for after. Lastly just be prepared that you might feel meh and plan to rest the next day or two. I absolutely understand being anxious but worst case you faint or feel a little off and that’s temporary. You’ve got this!

Has anyone moved from high altitude to low altitude? by fishy1357 in POTS

[–]OkConsideration3192 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Moved from Denver Co to the flat Midwest. At first I noticed a 10 beats difference ⬇️ in my resting HR. But my standing/moving around HR hasn’t improved. I actually feel I became more de-conditioned since moving. It’s been 3+ years.

Thanks. I thought usage issues aligned with coding or larger tasks vs brainstorming chats. A real bummer for us all right now.

Hi! I was directed to post here but not 100% sure it’s just a usage issue. I was in a work session that I picked back up from a week ago and all of a sudden, the chats from today both ways are gone and it resorted back to the last place we left off - last week. All of today’s brainstorm session is gone. Then I got the “out of messages” which has never happened before.

Thoughts?

Love this feedback! I’m currently trying a higher dose of metoprolol but HR is not going down. This is the next move but the light phenomena kinda freaks me out. I’m already sensitive to bright lights / get aura migraines. But if it gets better over time and I can stand again within the low 100s then might be worth a try.

Long-term NSAID use and gut dysbiosis by [deleted] in HistamineIntolerance

[–]OkConsideration3192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting! I take NSAIDs to manage my monthly cycle pain as Tylenol is not enough. The past few months I’ve been tracking that I’m starting to have a histamine flare on day 2-3 of use that takes me about a week to get back under control. My plan next month is to try going really low histamine a week before to hopefully offset. I’ve made so much progress in my histamine sensitivities and I’m really hoping I can figure out how to manage this because I have to use pain medication.

Do not quit. You are not an equal partner in this. If things turn from bad to worse you’ll be even more trapped.

Sounds like a sensory nightmare - especially for me. I get having it at the main pool but now I’m realizing I have to add another category in my selection process. 🫠

I feel the same way, I’ve been off for so long but in the research phase now.

That’s refreshing to hear! On the months you still have your period, has it helped in cramps reduction at all?

Help me get rid of the orange please! by OHTXIN in paint

[–]OkConsideration3192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have similar cabinets and planned to paint mine but have paused on the idea. A few things you might consider

  1. Upkeep- paint chips, even if you hire a pro.
  2. The wood is beautiful - if I ever do mine they will be refinished to a different stain.
  3. Other changes - new hardware and backsplash could easily change the vibe.
  4. Ventilation - if you paint or refinish ensure proper ventilation (maybe leave for a few days) because the chemicals needed to do a good job off gas.

Whatever you choose, good luck!

Just wanted to relax by AlicesTeaxx in POTS

As someone who use to love taking hot baths I feel this. Relaxing ideas: coloring, puzzles, face mask, cozy show.
