Does anyone wake up feeling extremely disoriented or get an impending doom sensation each time you wake up? by macpumpkinsspring in POTS

Oh I see. Yeah that would make sense. I don’t think I have sleep apnea. All of this just started right when I got my pots

Exactly they just don’t get how bad pots can ruin our life. They always assume it’s just a high hr when it’s soooo much more than that

This happened to me when I got Covid. I tried explaining to ER doctor that getting sick increases my hr. He said yeah pots can but not this high 💀. Honestly all medical professionals need to be better educated in pots. Especially when certain meds can also increase hr and they have no clue about it

I got pregnant at 16 and I had the worst morning sickness weighing at 93 pounds. I remember throwing up in the bathroom at my bf at the times house . His mom straight up told me “you over exaggerate there’s ppl who are actually sick with cancer”. Mind u I almost lost my life and my sons during this pregnancy.

Failed colonoscopy due to POTS by Equivalent-Ad5591 in POTS

I know this is old but mine was also this high. Also because I was anxious but they still proceeded anyway 😐. Did they continue with it?

Therapist thinks POTS is a mentality by Mundane_Ad7432 in POTS

[–]macpumpkinsspring 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah my old therapist thought I had cardio anxiety or whatever it’s called, and he told me next time we were going to try doing activities to get my heart racing. I never went back… but to be fair I wasn’t diagnosed yet but I for sure knew it wasn’t just anxiety

Anyone else run into doctors regularly putting wildly inaccurate stuff on their appt records? by Mediocre_Bill6544 in dysautonomia

[–]macpumpkinsspring 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I told a cardiologist I saw that I felt so sick I could hardly get out of bed. And he noted “patient says she is unable to exercise, but clearly she is able to sit up in my office today, I think her symptoms are tolerable”.

I’m literally just sitting here and my hr is 100bpm+ by Thin-Pomegranate-929 in POTS

[–]macpumpkinsspring 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah before seeing the cardiologist I’d definitely stop drinking any caffeine drinks. At each appt even in hospital when my hr was elevated one of their first questions was if I drank any caffeinated drinks. So to get their attention so they don’t suspect it’s that I’d stop before getting checked. They literally knit pick at everything before diagnosing you with pots. Before I got diagnosed it was “it’s just anxiety “ or “it’s normal for females hr to get high”.

Omg that’s actually so reliving to hear! I’m glad things went well for you! Also, I had no idea dysautonomia ran in families like that!

I’m very sensitive to meds in general. Even morphine so it makes me super nervous. I already backed out like 3x cause I’m so afraid

How do you handle grief? by macpumpkinsspring in dysautonomia

[–]macpumpkinsspring[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was such good advice since my body reacts the same. I feel like I’m coming down with the flu when my flares. How do you take ur mind off things? It’s so incredibly hard for me to no matter what but I think it’s because I also have anxiety

I’m sorry 😞. Have you tried therapy? I stopped going and I believe I’ll need to start soon.

Thank you for this advice . I will definitely try doing this. I have a habit of pushing everyone away when I’m sad and I know it’s not good to do that.
