Jacquie802 Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 Hi,I am just curious to see what anyone's experience with surgery has been while having POTS. I might have to go back in for nose surgery (can barely breath!!). I had the surgery years ago (1998, I think) and once again I am having a hard time breathing. Just curious to see what others have been through...Hope it doesn't cause the POTS to get worse.Jacquie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenn202 Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 I have had my appendix out ( emergency Surgery) as well as all 4 impacted wisdom teeth.I did fine..... I never really saw a major problem.... I made sure I had IV fluids.....I am sure everyone has different experiences though so its hard to say how you will feelI think the biggest advise would be to make sure you have set up what you need that helps you feel better...such as meds or Fluids.....I hope your surgery goes well if you have it.

janineerrn Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 Hi,I have to have my tonsils out soon (putting it off) My ENT who is doing the surgery is in contact with my cardio. I know I have to go off miodrine before he surgery and i will be getting IV fluids before surgery. Bad enough to have your tonsils out at 40 yet alone with POTS. I m not real woried about the surgery, its the recovery that I think I will have a hard time with.I wish you luck and just take good care of yourself.PeaceJanine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
