andybonse Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 It is basically damaged nerves, specifically your autonomic nerves. Most people with POTS have Neuropathy, even in EDS. So the brains signals dont get to the organ(blood vessels) to constrict when we stand so we get POTS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
