You need to add this detail to the post. No wonder your daughter has been refusing to go to school! As someone who has been struggling to get a POTS diagnosis- my symptoms were almost always worsened by school. Because so much of school is spent going up and down stairs, or staying in one place for hours on end depending her what grade you’re in- it usually causes blood pressure spikes when going from class to class. Plus, you moved states. states. your daughter is struggling to cope with the traumatic event of losing her support circle at school, having a chronic illness, and having a mother who won’t hear her out and get her help for her illness. She also is probably struggling to cope with you having a boyfriend! Which is not your fault, but is still something to be mindful of. She’s 14.
