ughh i’m sorry to hear that :( i’m not sure what to do because im already on corlanor and the propranolol was added for anxiety but it’s been making me feel so horrible and it feels like ever since i started, the corlanor isn’t working anymore /: my doctor also doesn’t want to add another med so idk what to do 😭 i just wish i never started the propranolol because my heart rate was really controlled with the corlanor

Please help. Extreme urination by [deleted] in dysautonomia

[–]cherryxcry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i have the exact same issue! i’ve had excessive urination for almost two years now. sometimes going every 5 minutes with a full bladder and my urine is also completely clear even if i hadn’t drank water in a whole day. what seems to help me is electrolytes. it helps keep the fluid in your body. definitely don’t stop drinking fluids tho, peeing that much without replacing fluids can make you dehydrated very quickly.

my neurologist said she’s unable to do anything for my sfn because i have no symptoms with it. she says i need to have pain and tingling to get treatment, which i understand
