lynnie22 Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 I have had POTS for two years. Recently I had a fever and my standing heart rate was so high, I couldn't stand. I realized this is a big problem, since fevers make the heart rate go up in general. What do you do who suffer from this? What do you do if you get the flu? Thanks for your help!!

corina Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 Hi Lynnie, welcome to the forum! First of all I get the yearly flu shot to try prevent getting the flu. When I have a fever I usually need to stay in bed not just because of the fever but because of my hr getting very high which causes me to feel really tired and faint. Even when on a bb my hr got up really high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
