Rachel Posted September 25, 2008 Report Share Posted September 25, 2008 He is probably the best doctor to start with in GA. He is an electrophysiologist, and he is knowledgeable in the area of POTS diagnosis and treatment. He works with the Cardiac Disease Specialists, so if you need help in an area other than electrophysiology there would be a doctor in that practice to whom he could refer you.I hope that you find the help and treatment you need.Rachel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rachel Posted September 26, 2008 Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 I doubt they would send you to Vanderbilt right away, if at all. They would only refer someone whose symptoms are more severe than what they can treat or someone who wants to undergo further testing. The doctors at the Cardiac Disease Specialists would probably start out by getting a thorough medical history, doing an EKG, and starting POTS medications. It's really hard for me to say how things would go for you. I don't know you or your symptoms very well, and I'm not a doctor. You'll just have to go the cardiologists and see what they can do.Rachel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
