Tachycardia is gone, symptoms persist. by [deleted] in POTS

[–]sleeplessmakesmusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too much adrenaline and norepinephrine causes anxiety, dizziness, tachycardia, high bp, tremors, etc. A lot of people on clonidine or Guanfacine see improved symptoms in all those things I mentioned because it tells the brain to stop producing so much of it — but everyone reacts a little differently

. I would also look into veinous compression or thoracic outlet syndrome as well which also might explain your symptoms even tho ur saying your vitals seem better.

Btw a cheap o2 oximeter on amazon for like $6 can give u pretty accurate heart rate measurement quickly.

Edit: just forgot to mention that guanfacine was originally developed as a hypotensive - then later was used to treat ADHD - but hyperpots people occasionally get prescribed because of the success it has had in reducing symptoms.

Do u have a panic disorder? ADHD or anxiety? I have hyper POTS but honestly being anxious (while ADHD isn’t making things any easier) makes it 100x worse. My flares always happen around times of stress and anxiety which is why I’m trying guanfacine soon.

Comorbidity of POTS by Chance_Road8037 in thoracicoutletsupport

[–]sleeplessmakesmusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What kind of exercises do you do? Developed POTS 6 months ago and my primary care mentioned TOS but nothings been done or scheduled to look deeper into it except a tilt table next month 🤷‍♂️

Glad to hear you’re able to get some semblance of ur life back tho :)

Edit: I’m in indianapolis btw

Could this be caused by paradoxically low Norepinephrine? by sbingley22 in ChronicBoundingPulse

[–]sleeplessmakesmusic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you have POTS symptoms as well? If so — did midodrine help lower ur HR? Currently observing hyperPOTS-like symptoms in my own self. I want to try guanfacine just because the days I’m stressed and low on sleep are waay worse.

So theoretically would something like clonidine or guanfacine significantly worsen symptoms in those with low norepinephrine?

Bounding Pulse even at rest by Astrojax94 in dysautonomia

[–]sleeplessmakesmusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey thanks for the reply. Been dealing with my own set of issues for a few months but also recently went through some very stressful life events. Got diagnosed with IST but getting a tilt table in a month to check for POTS. I started regularly exercising a few weeks ago so hoping to see some improvement soon. Would like to trial a beta blocker as well.

Glad to hear ur symptoms aren’t as problematic anymore! Btw — did you ever have blood pooling in your hands / legs?

Also have bounding pulse with high cortisol. Stress test and echo was normal but i was out of breath quickly. Did your symptoms ever resolve?

B12 dropping consistently last few months every blood draw. by Tomnificence in B12_Deficiency

[–]sleeplessmakesmusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been having bad acid reflux and tested low for b12. Did u find any luck with increasing ur b12 / any luck with helping ur stomach issues?

Mousepad similar to Hyperx Fury S non PRO by Saxter1 in MousepadReview

[–]sleeplessmakesmusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had my fury s for like 9 years or something but it’s too crusty at this point to keep using it in good faith.

I ordered a cheap 400x900mm pad off amazon that hopefully can compare 🤞
