katcanny Posted November 27, 2016 Report Share Posted November 27, 2016 Hi to all you lovely people, i have questions that I want to put tactfully as I am a little embarrassed to raise these questions with my doctor. But as bedroom time goes is it safe for people with POTS to have normal bedroom activity? My partner is afraid I will faint/pass out and he doesn't want to do anything to cause me another hospital trip. I don't have any answers to give him and I feel horrible that this syndrome has caused yet another thing I have to worry about and effect my relationship. I'm guessing there are tips or tricks that I need to know before trying to convince my partner I'm not a ticking time bomb I hope this post doesn't offend anyone that is not my intention at all I just want to talk honestly to people that have had to experience this.

Guest Posted December 3, 2016 Report Share Posted December 3, 2016 Well, the good news is, if you do faint or pass out, there's a decent chance you'll be on a nice soft bed and won't get hurt . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemesis Posted December 13, 2016 Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 Well never faint or passed out but leg exercises make me tired and raise my heart rate sometimes cause hypotension Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
