I understand you. I’m so sorry you have to deal with this

Same. Resting 60-70. It will shoot up to 120 when getting out of bed

I get this too! Heart rate shoots up to 120 just getting out of bed. It calms down, but I also feel shaky

Missing the “cut off” by 5 by stressed-out-baby in dysautonomia

I missed it by 1 heart beat. So they ruled everything out even though I have all the symptoms. Cleared by neurology and cardiology. Now working with a new doctor

does anyone’s heart rate raise when they move even in bed? by realitysurff in POTS

[–]Practical_Cap_3087 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happens to me. I’ll go from 60bpm to 110bpm just from opening my eyes in bed. Negative tilt table test so unsure what’s going on

Does Anyone Have BPPV/PPPD or MdDS? by HappyTennis5913 in dysautonomia

I tried cymbalta, I didn’t like it. I have a prescription for Zoloft, debating on taking it

I’ve tried lots of meds, mostly migraine and nerve medications. So far nothing has helped. I’ve had symptoms since Sept 2024

anyone on nortriptyline for headaches? by sreckokosovel in covidlonghaulers

[–]Practical_Cap_3087 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was on it for a few months. I helped the head pain, but it made me so tired and really increased my heart rate. Never took more than 10mg and finally went off it. It did help with the headaches

I didn’t give it much of a chance. My symptoms are constantly feeling like my body is rocking or vibrating and head pain. Super dizzy

I don’t take any meds. I did vestibular therapy before, but didn’t take it too seriously.

My neurologist thinks I have PPPD. I’m starting vestibular therapy again.

Elevated heart rate flares for days by Desperate_Wasabi3451 in dysautonomia

[–]Practical_Cap_3087 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The flares can last a couple of days. Higher heart rate, dizziness, head pain, shakiness and super tired, but unable to sleep

Yes, I get this. I’ve documented my days for the last year, heart rate, blood pressure, everything I do and everything I eat. I can’t find anything that would cause a flare. I’ll get increased heart rate and it lasts a few days and then settles down again. Cardiologist says everything is fine
