    heart rate is fine moving my arm...its drinking any kind of beverage it goes up quite a bit yea i wonder if this happens with people without POTS ? but weird enough when i hold my breathe it only goes up 5-8 beats, but when i drink anything it goes up 10-20 beats ???

    sounds silly but my heart rate goes from 66 to 84 just drinking water or gatorade ? like 3 big sips ? and comes back down within 5 minuetes ...but is it normal for that to happen ?

    I may be BENT, but not BROKEN, everything happens for a REASON. Because if GOD brings you to it, HE will bring you through it.

    ok the Mayo Clinic said to have my PCP call in and they are willing to help find a diagnoses they said to call and ask for a POTS specialist. my question is ...who is the best POTS doctor in that specific hospital ? so i can tell my doctor to ask for that specific person ? if any 1 could lend a helping hand it would mean a lot as you know how hard a diagnoses is =/
