michealdul Posted August 9, 2015 Report Share Posted August 9, 2015 Hi,I had an +39 bpm increase in hear rate at the tild table after 2min (from 70 lying to 109 standing). Though after 4min my heart rate went down to 81 bpm. Unfortunately my doctor does not really have much experience with POTS/Dysautonomia. He argues that this is not a POTS diagnose. A strong increase of heart rate, but not a sustained one. Reading different medical papers about POTS I realize some researchers mention a sustained increase some researchers just talk about an increase >30 bpm. What is the precise definiton of the POTS diagnose? How "sustained" does the increase of heart rate have to be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
