Hi Maia I´m new to this forum and I found your post on POTS/floating on google. I found out I had a floating kidney a few years age and I was sure that it was the reason for my symptoms that were later diagnosed as POTS. My urologist did not think that a floating kidney could cause the symptoms I had which is why I continued on searching for another diagnosis and I found POTS. I have done so much research on my own to find a link between my floating kidney and POTS. Both conditions started at the same time after my first pregnancy and it just seemed so related. I still think that there is a chance even more so after reading about your situation. The one thing I don´t understand is why a floating kidney can cause so many differet autonomic symptoms. The tachycardia I get but what about the exercice intolerence, the temp regulation problems, the cognitive impairment, the blood pooling etc. Did your doctor explain why a floating kidney can cause all of those symptoms? How far did your kidney drop? Mine only drops about 3 cm which isn´t even enough for an official diagnosis. I have some pain related to my kidney and I´ve experienced episodes where I sit for at long time and I experince more and more pain followed by a tachycardia episode, dizzynes, nausea etc. I was thinking this could be do to the blood supply being cut off from the kidney. Do you have those kinds of episodes? AKgirl: you wrote in a post that you were able to move your kidney back in it´s place when standing. Did it relieve your POTS symptoms when you did this like iot does for Maia? Sorry for the spelling. I´m from Denmark so english is not my first language:) Hope to hear from you guys. Can´t wait to here more about your situation Maia. Alice
