Akgirl Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 I have had a gradual onset of pots and dysautonomia since I was very young. But in the last 6 months it has really kicked into high gear and I have gotten sicker and sicker. With all of my other symptoms I also developed exploding head syndrome...... Yes it's a real thing!!!!! I thought I was developing a severe mental condition but found out that it is very benign and there's not a whole lot of information out there about it! I was curios if anyone else has this and if possibly it's related to pots???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mydoggielovesme2 Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 Hi Akgirl, I have had this happen several times since developing POTS. I assume it's caused from stress. (From reading about it) All I know is its darn scary when it happens. Sometimes I even get this bright flash of light. I thought our house got struck by lightening once. My husband hates it because I'll wake him up from, my jerking awake and thinking something bad has happened. I have never taken my pulse when it happens, but I can tell you it feels like heart is going to pound out of my chest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mydoggielovesme2 Posted March 7, 2013 Report Share Posted March 7, 2013 I know! With me there is no consistency. It may happen once a month, then not happen for a year. Just so weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
