pink1975 Posted May 3, 2017 Report Share Posted May 3, 2017 Just whining, lol. I have had POTS for years and I know all of us want to go back to before we had it, but I would gladly take going back even a couple of months to where even though I felt like crud most of the time I actually felt better and more functional than I do now. Spent Friday afternoon in ER getting IV trying to help this horrible, nearly constant coat hanger pain. Being upright (even sitting) has become difficult and therefore I am just feeling whiny lol. Meds keep my heart rate in check but I would even take tachycardia over the pain. That is all, haha. Rant over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MomtoGiuliana Posted May 3, 2017 Report Share Posted May 3, 2017 Hope you feel better soon. For most of us this condition waxes and wanes. Very few people seem to remain extremely disabled in the long term. I know it's hard to feel very poorly!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weyland Posted May 3, 2017 Report Share Posted May 3, 2017 I know how you feel ,about a week ago I was in the ER also . Heart rate was going crazy and feeling very weak . Got an iv and my potassium was low,it's been low a few times lately not sure why. Pots is the worst....I would give anything to go back. Did they do blood work on you in the ER ?

pink1975 Posted May 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2017 I got the works, blood work, cardiology workup, etc. It's "JUST" POTS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weyland Posted May 3, 2017 Report Share Posted May 3, 2017 That's always good to get the workup done just in case . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
