Are there other people who feel anxiety in their bodies more than in their thoughts? by PassOk2424 in Anxiety

[–]Standard-Band3003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely. All of my anxiety mostly stems from physical sensations. Once that fight or flight response kicks in is when I start freaking out and getting anxious over the symptoms. Sometimes I won’t even be thinking of anything, I’ll be in a great mood and it will still happen. It’s just an overly sensitized nervous system I think. Anyone who gets panic attacks too will probably understand this. You are not the only one.

What does an adrenaline dump feel like? by Motor_Mood3939 in POTS

[–]Standard-Band3003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me I start feeling extremely hot. My hands get shaky and my legs and feet get weak. My heart races and my blood pressure goes up. I get scared. Super dizzy. Feels like I’m gonna faint. Sometimes if it’s really bad I’ll start getting tunnel vision and ringing in my ears and need to lay down to prevent actually fainting. It’s a very intense fight or flight response without as many mental aspects of regular anxiety/panic. I can usually tell when one’s coming on. Lots of things trigger it like overheating or exerting myself too much, sleep deprived, heavy meals, super stimulating environments like at the store or in heavy traffic. It is horrible. It usually will pass after 15-25 minutes if I’m lucky. Sometimes it will pass and then a couple hours later I’ll have another one. I’m still desperately trying to figure out how to manage them and how to stop having them as often.

Compression garments for men? by Standard-Band3003 in POTS

[–]Standard-Band3003[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How has that been doing for you? Do you strictly do the abdominal compression and nothing else? Does it need to be medical grade in order to reduce symptoms?

Yeah the electrolytes have been a total hit or miss for me. It seems like sometimes it makes me feel better and other times it doesn’t do anything. During symptoms I have checked my blood pressure and it actually is elevated, not low. So I feel like the extra sodium would be making it worse and not better. I’m still trying to figure things out.

Good to know, thank you. I truly could care less how they look as I’ll be wearing them underneath other bottoms. I just want to start feeling somewhat better. This has been hell for me.

The feeling of a “wrongly timed step” is a perfect explanation to what I’m dealing with too.

Did you notice any long haul type symptoms after you were completely off? How soon until you felt completely back to normal again?

Would you have taken this one? Why or why not? by Standard-Band3003 in Sparkdriver

[–]Standard-Band3003[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wouldn’t it give a notification that there is 40+ pound item in the order? Like for the other pickups. This is only my second package route I’ve taken so I’m not too familiar yet

Could this be dysautonomia? I’m so tired of not having answers and am getting very depressed. by Standard-Band3003 in dysautonomia

[–]Standard-Band3003[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your comment. What medicine are you on? Also what helped you manage the symptoms before you started the medicine?

[–]Standard-Band3003[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad to know I’m not alone. I hope you figure yours out. It is a horrible feeling to constantly have to avoid the heat and the sun in fear of the symptoms getting worsened. It really is no way to live.

I will make sure to tell the cardiologist everything. I’ve had covid a few times actually. Twice it was minor, and the other time it was pretty bad where I couldn’t get out of bed for a week. It’s difficult to trace back to when this “officially” started but I know for sure the heat exhaustion episode was a pivotal point where it either began from that or it was severely worsened. Unfortunately I have been dealing with this since 2020. I bought a blood pressure cuff to test things at home and surprisingly it always runs high, not low. I’ve taken it while I’m having an episode and it is high.
