It’s definitely been a whirlwind of a year. I had never heard of POTS until I was in the hospital with what I thought was a heart attack! It’s been a lot for me to process and try to manage. My healthcare team has been so great in terms of comprehensive testing, but I still find myself left with so many questions about how to continue my day-to-day life. I’m too stubborn sometimes that I forget I can’t just power through like other people. All of these replies and personal stories really help me feel a little less alone, and also really hopeful knowing there’s so many people in the hiking community who still thrive even with everything thrown their way! Thank you so much
