So too much Angiotensin II may INCREASE norepinepherine, which the hyperPOTS group, and many POTS people in general have higher levels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeGenesis Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 This goes back to the gorilla in the room:Are these biochemical changes compensatory or maladaptive?As much as it is said that you must find your sub-type of POTS, I think that trialing drugs until you find something that works for you is a valid approach. Some people have had success with ARBs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
