Canadiangirl73 Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 Hi all, I was wondering if someone gets this too and could explain why this happens. For quite a few months now, I start belching when I'm upright and it doesn't go away for hours after I sit down. I notice it starts after being on my feet for some time, so my only theory is that there is not enough blood to my stomach and/or since I get short of breath I inhale a lot of air without noticing. I also get a very strong urge to urinate after being vertical for a while. This urge is very different from the normal urge to go and I urinate a lot after I sit or lie back down. Anyone has a clue?

yogini Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 Yes, ESP belching. I am constantly burping when my POTS is acting up, not just when I'm upright. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YolaInBlue Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 Yes, I had both for several months when it all started and during a flare this summer. I asked a few doctors what causes those symptoms but didn't get an answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
