Hello you all POTS People! My Name is Harry and i am from Austria (Europe) I am Diagnosed with POTS 3 Years ago, but suffering from this disease my whole life. (now i am 36) Before I write my story i have to tell, that i am not so good in english writing, so i hope you can understand me. In German there are not much Informations about POTS, so i didn?t realized that there are so much with this Disease, until i came across this Forum. I read so many posts here until now, and i have to say i?m equal of so much of you. I got so many symptoms that is talking here about, on my own. The biggest trouble i got from POTS is overheating. Since i was a child, i can remember of having this problem. In the past year?s i get over this problem with drinking a lot of Cola and Coffee. Of course, I tried to live without coffee, but than i feel realy bad, and these days i know coffee is much important for me. But as i grow older, i can?t drink everytime so much Cola, and i began to attempt to find out why i?m so much overheating. I realized that a big part of this overheating comes from my Pants. As every man in the western world i wear the same pants, especially Jeans. First i try to change in shorts. But like every time before, i got so much undefinably broblems with short?s. Than i try pants that have a more "loose fit". But with this pants my trouble get also realy worse. So i try the opposite: thigt Pants. With this pants my overheating get?s a little bit better, but it isn?t that what live shoud be. Than i read, that Compressing hose are recommended for POTS. So i get a pair of this. And for watching TV and sleeping they are realy fine. But when i must my normal pant wear over the compression?s to go out, i can?t bear this, because it get?s to hot. And so i lived with this overwhelming trouble over the year?s. I was so much near Fainting, and i felt so bad I was and i am so much jealous about the big range of clothe women have. Woman can wear tigth pants like leggins or capri?s, they can even wear the most comfortable garment i know: skirt?s . Nothing one of this garments are common for a man. But than i came across Website?s they promote "Casual Kilt?s". Kilt?s are a costume of scotish culture, and in Scotland very commen. Kilt?s are like skirt?s, but the Kilt is reserved for man. The Casual Kilt is like the real Kilt, but in one color, and is made for everyday wear, for every man. So i ordered one of these Casual Kilt?s from a Company named UnionKilts. ( In the USA there is a big Company of Casual Kilt?s named Utilikilts) And that was a big change in my Live! Now in these days my symptoms are so much better, i didnt?know a comfortable live like this for so long time. It realy helped me so so much. I hope you didn?t take this the wrong way, because this is not a common way, to get a big bit better of overheating. Harry
