Jordan5815 Posted August 18, 2008 Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 Has anyone ever had slight remission of symptoms my hr usually goes up to atleast 120 upon standing....... I have an excel document ive been taking for the past 2 weeks and for some reason since saturday my hr has only been going up 5-10 bpm upon standing......... I pretty much know it will go back to the normal 120 bpm instead of chillin at 85 90bpm so this is a pretty nice break. episodes still occur but pots symptoms are starting to go slightly into remission. It's pretty cool watching this excel document. When it flares back up I want to see what it does so I have that info for my doc....... Has this ever happened to any of you.....Simple Yes or no answer if you want to fill in the reason why it could be doing this that would be amazing Just more pieces to the puzzle.P.S. This has happened to me before, just wondering if any of you all have had this... and maybe a slight explanation to why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ernie Posted August 18, 2008 Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 Hi,Yes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mom4cem Posted August 18, 2008 Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 Yes a few days. Don't know of any reason. I take the same things and do the same things daily. So I've not noticed anything that could have brought on the difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juliegee Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 Yeppers. POTS stuff worsens for me when my general health does, if I'm burning the candle at both ends, not sleeping or eating well, very stressed OR when I have a big health issue brewing that I may not be aware of until it's critical: gallbladder, massive uterine fibroid, major allergy stuff, etc. When POTS flares, I have to take inventory.Hope yours lasts!Julie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtlefairy5 Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 I would second what Julie just said. When I take it easy, I don't feel as awful all of the time, but if I try to be "normal," ie work a full-time job, handle stress, etc., then my symptoms flare up and knock me back out of the game for a while. I don't know if you could call feeling semi-okay when not engaging in a normal life "remission" but, my symptoms do abate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitsakatsa Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 Happened out of the blue for 2 weeks 3 and a half years ago. I've not experienced anything like it since. We tried to pin it down, but could never figure out the driver behind the wellness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runningshoe Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 If I drink my chicken broth, lie down for a bit each, sleep okay - then my heart rate is very well controlled. I may get tired but a heart monitor would show nothing funky. However there are times when I do all the right things and I still feel potsy.
