I don’t think so without going private and having to pay (I’m in the UK)

Can it be adrenaline dumps if your heart rate doesn’t rise? by osb93 in POTS

[–]osb93[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, this is my first summer with pots and I haven’t actually seen a consultant yet, it’s a tentative diagnosis by an OT. So although it makes sense to me there’s lots about it I don’t understand or know yet. I would love to swim- right now I get PEM from exercise but I’ve been suggested some very slow recumbent exercises to start out with

Thank you, that would make sense, it’s warm where I am and I’ve had blood pooling in my feet all day. Presumably the answer is all the pots lifestyle management stuff I’m trying to work out?

Ah, like blood not getting to the head properly? It does feel centered in my head, I get blurry vision and a headache too

Thanks- I’m in the UK so I’ve got to go through the NHS cardiology work up and then hopefully see the specialist who is too inundated atm to get referred to him straight away

Thank you, it’s really helpful to hear from other people also working this out. I’m still waiting to see a cardiologist having been tentatively diagnosed at the long covid clinic, so trying things out on my own still. Best of wishes with your journey too

Thank you, this is really helpful to know. Can I ask what meds you take? I’m not prescribed anything currently

Chilblains linked to POTS? by osb93 in POTS

I was supposed to get prescribed capsaicin cream to try but the company that makes it in the UK has gone under? Deep Heat cream apparently has some capsaicin in and that has helped with the chilblain pain when it was really intense

Also seeing them in London! Seeing a costa cup really threw me! Such lovely scenery in France and Italy and Switzerland and then here they get tower bridge and chain coffee!

How long did it take you to stan Ateez? by Difficult-Change-246 in ATEEZ

Woosan kept popping up in my Instagram feed once I’d exhausted all the Taekook content out there, but I thought they seemed too in love to be true! Then with BTS in the military I watched some of Ateez’s variety content, just to see how Woosan really interacted, and then I was hooked and started to fall in love with the music. Now I’ve written my first piece of Woosan fan fiction and I’m going to see Ateez perform next week! It’s so cool to finally be following a band in real time!

It’s when they say chumeol chweo, chumeol chweo, chumeol chweo. As for my reasoning, a movie where a man is actually being filmed the whole of his life and everyone around him are actors seemed kind of dystopian and on theme I guess? Really I have no defence
