  1. Dan and Linda, I am so sorry that things are not going well. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
  2. good luck! I am glad that you arent going to let this beat you. Take it slow.
  3. I have had that, too. My husband actually has to hold me because I shake so bad. I am usually really hot when it happens. Go figure.
  4. I think that it depends on the person. I got pregnant knowing that I have POTs and I felt great during my pregnancy and had no complications with delivery. I agree with the above posts that it is something that you should discuss with your dr. I didnt, but everything turned out ok for me.
  5. some days I have a very hard time getting my rings on. I havent noticed swelling in the legs though.
  6. sometimes when I feel like poo, I take my bp and it is normal. Go figure.
  7. my hands swell and get itchy when I get really hot. It is too weird.
  8. jamie, hang in there. Think positive thoughts and try not to get frustrated. I'll be thinking about you!
  9. Thats great! Let us know what you learn!
  10. Welcome! I think that I know what you are talking about. Is it like when you stand up to fast and everything goes black for a minute? That happens to me when my bp is low. I havent had it happen pulling my hair back though.
  11. I dont mind being home by myself for a little while, but I tend to start talking to myself just to keep entertained.
  12. I've never really paid that much attention. But I will now. That is a very interesting observation.
  13. yea!!! See good things do happen! Im glad that you had something to brighten your day!
  14. I hope that you feel better soon! Do you think that maybe you had a stomach virus? Just rest and take it easy.
  15. I didnt have any problems when I had my wisdom teeth out. I had it done in the office and there were no complications. I remember them sticking the needle in my arm and the next thing I knew I was looking around wondering when I was going to fall asleep, but the procedure was already done. Aside frome the pain and not being able to eat what I wanted for a few days, I was ok. I hope that everything goes well for you!
  16. I am so glad that everything went so well! I knew you could do it!
  17. That is awsome that your group got signed. I had no idea! Congrats! I am so happy that they are working on a drug for POTs. That is fabulous! I just wonder what the long term side effects will be. I look forward to hearing more about it.
  18. poor thing! That is one thing that I try and make myself do. I am very OCD and cannot stand it. If I dont take a shower I feel yucky all day. Its a mental thing I know but I cant handle it.
  19. When I am in really bad shape and go to the er they call my cardiologist and he always has them give me IV saline. I can feel a difference almost immediately. I still feel rundown and weak for a few days, but I definately think that it helps.
  20. morgan, I cant believe that they treated you so badly. It is sad that some people go into the medical profession and dont care if they help people or not. Maybe you should go to a hospital far far away from that one. Welcome home. Get lots of rest and try not to think about your childhood issues too much. We wouldnt want you to get upset and get tachy again.
  21. bless your heart! You are having such a tough time of it right now. I hope that Teri is taking good care of you. Hang in there.
  22. I am sorry! Maybe you should just gradually get back into school. Just do a little bit this semester and then more the next and more the next. Have you been to the disability office? They can often help make arrangements for you. What are you going to school for? Take care .
  23. I get goose bumps alot. I hate it because I have to shave daily. I have always had sensitive skin. A lot of soaps make me break out and in the winter my hands and elbows get really dry.
