Macca Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Interesting. Thanks for sharing! I didn't fully agree with his view on Mestinon, it's been really useful for my POTS, not just for G.I issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueskies Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Thanks Tachy, A most thorough overview, for a presentation, on the treatment of symptoms of pots available. I have severe constipation issues and can't work out why I have not been offered a try of mestinon. Something to ask my pots or gi doc. Was interested to hear the doc's take on tilt table tests. Sometimes needed, but not always necessary -- if I got that part right. blue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos Posted February 15, 2014 Report Share Posted February 15, 2014 Interesting that he says 10% of POTS patients go on to develop MSA. Don't think I've heard that statistic before. Thanks for sharing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueskies Posted February 16, 2014 Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 Hi Chaos, I didn't hear him say that about MSA -- although the volume of his voice was so low on my computer I was straining to hear him anyway. However, I had read of the 10% statistic. Right back when I was diagnosed with POTS about 8 years ago, maybe. (I'm now sketchy on my diagnosis date -- brain fog or what! I could look it up but am staying lying down today). However I haven't read it since. Then again I haven't thought to do a search for it. blue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
