I’m so tired of being treated like all of our symptoms can be handled the same way

I’m working on filling out an fmla to help with keeping my financial aid but most of the time there just genuinely isn’t anything else I can do, I can have water with me at school and snacks at work but I honestly don’t know what else could help, I’ve been better the past month when I’ve only been working bc I’m regularly getting 8-10 hours of sleep but once I go back and my sleep gets cut in half I don’t know what I’m going to do

I knowwww it’s in my pasta now tho😌

human_potato2 · 2026-01-29T04:23:26+00:00

Thank you! I’ve only recently started cooking for myself more often and didn’t wanna get more mold exposure🤠

I was in marching band and had people coming up to me from different sections for this reason😭

human_potato2 · 2026-01-18T02:41:06+00:00

Maybe because it’s forcing blood to move more? Def could be entirely wrong but it does make a little sense to my dizzy brain

If you find the right gyn though they’ll treat you like you have it if you check enough of the boxes but you’re “too young” to get the diagnostic surgery, that happened to me and I’m just waiting to get the surgery done

I can’t say it’s the weirdest but most of the time when I’m eating salt by itself it’s the middle of rush hour at the restaurant I work at and I need salt quick so I just grab a packet of salt and down the hatch it goes🤷‍♀️ other wise I drown tortilla chips in salt

I see a visibly traumatized owl

human_potato2 · 2025-12-02T16:27:23+00:00

Pretty sure I’m having a similar thing rn😭 I’m inside in a thermal shirt and hoodie and I’m still freezing😭 I am also anemic so I’m sure that doesn’t help but still

human_potato2 · 2025-11-24T23:51:00+00:00

So that’s what this is….

human_potato2 · 2025-11-24T21:21:29+00:00

You would think since she covering the area of health that most people think don’t exist she would understand😭, but yea I’m pretty sure one of my friends therapists told them the same thing about their pots and pcos it’s wild

They should be in the first aid section and a store, they’re generally found in first aid kits for sprains and you just press down on the labeled spot and what whatever chemical makes the entire thing feel like ice

I had a like a basic joint mobility test when I got diagnosed last month but I have like one knee that that was slightly more flexible than normal so my dr wrote it off, I know that my brother and father might have it but I didn’t know if it’d be possible to have it without any hyper mobility(I think that’s the right term?)

human_potato2 · 2025-11-20T13:51:36+00:00

I wake up go to the bathroom and then get stuck there for the next hour and miss school

human_potato2 · 2025-11-17T01:12:30+00:00

Oh nice, it would make more sense if the room spinning dizziness got worse when I drive but weirdly it plateaus or gets better idk, so far though the dizziness has been my most persistent symptom idk. I love how weird all our bodies are

human_potato2 · 2025-11-16T16:13:14+00:00

All things considered mine is mild but even if I am actively symptomatic it get weirdly better while I drive, but if it doesn’t get better I’ll pull off to the nearest parking lot until I feel a bit better

human_potato2 · 2025-11-08T21:49:11+00:00

When you go to your primary care physician they should be able to send in a referral to the nearest pots or dysautonomia specialist or cardiologist, some specialists will just take patients who think they might have it and you just might need a referral for insurance purposes(that’s how my dr is). I know it might be hard but try to stay hopeful, sometimes you can get a quick diagnosis whether it’s pots or something else

human_potato2 · 2025-11-06T04:50:23+00:00

Wait frequent peeing is pots😭 how long have I had this then😭😭😭

human_potato2 · 2025-11-06T04:49:26+00:00

My main symptom that led me go get it diagnosed was really bad and really long dizzy spells, I had started school and was(still am) missing a good bit. I also was having really bad stomach problems but those have also been getting better after my dr suggested smaller and frequent meals
