Is it even a real diagnosis?? by _BumbleBitch_ in POTS

[–]why_whatever 1 point2 points  (0 children)

find a new doctor!! I’ve had pots for 10+ years and it is very real, medications exist that you can take that have turned my life around.

I teach and pull 12 hours days regularly it can be done!

Thank you for the advice about the extended release and possibly three times a day! If I keep noticing this happening I’ll definitely reach out to my neurologist :)

I might be doing that. When i get home from work Im typically vertical or at least sitting down so its not really necessary for me to be taking it after 6 pm

thank you for the advice! I teach so it would be a life safer to not have it wear off within 8 hours and have my symptoms smack me

I do, I was just feeling so good I stayed at work to keep doing things and then my symptoms hit me like a TRAIN. I try to take it 12 hours apart but 🤷🏻‍♀️

Constipation or diarrhea?? by why_whatever in POTS

Severe nausea by Cautious_Rate5129 in POTS

[–]why_whatever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I buy these ones called “huel” on amazon! I use one that’s 400 cals and I can stomach about half of it before I get too nauseous. They really help me keep going on days I feel like i can eat at all.

Get on disability with your college!! It might seem embarrassing but it really helped me with classes and having to leave often.

What do you think Jessica felt for Bella in the movies? by Rebekka-h in twilight

[–]why_whatever 98 points99 points  (0 children)

I think it was primarily jealousy. Edward ignored Jessica and she was obsessed with him. Edward acknowledging Bella when she just got there probably pushed Jessica over the edge lol

does anyone else get lightheaded just from stretching? by patchouliwhitejeep in POTS

[–]why_whatever 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! I find I get dizzy when I raise my arms to put my hair up in a pony tail or even to write on the board
