No I do not have kids and I'd love to be a mom but now I'm not so sure....

thank you for helping me be positive..... can you have children tho if you already have pots

good luck!! and thanks i wanna live a normal life...are you able to have children with pots?

im sad im so scared like im only 20 ill be 21 tomorrow im not excited for my birthday... i wanna have my normal life back!!! i wanna be okay and not worry i feel like my life is over and ill never get better like i cant be normal

how?

thank you and im in the pittsuburgh pa area... and i do have a pretty good pcp but i have not talked to him about this yet.....

i have not been diagnosed with pots as of now.... i have actually been diagnosed with anxiety but the more i read and hear peoples stories the more i think and worry i have pots to the point where i think about it always and i cry about it.....

can anyone give me guidance i know i have been told by some people to get a tilt table test but that is not a reality for me right now with insurance and all

Hey everyone

I was wondering what kind of symptoms everyone gets from a day to day basis??

I ment laying vs. standing sorry hahaha

thank you i will... im going to keep a journal for a week about laying vs. sitting and go from there i have been having this for 6 months and my symptoms arent relieved upon sitting or laying ...but ill try that for a week and see what my heart rate is.... but id like to know is pots something that gets worse over time? can you die?

I did have a holter .... So that would not be good way to tell if someone had pots?

thanks...question i had heart tests would any of those give a suspicion to pots?

Thank you I have decided to keep a journal for a week of my heart rate... I will let everyone know the results....

Is this manageable? Can I live normally? Will it get worse over time? Will this eventually kil me?

I'm just terrified..... I don't want to die

Thanks I'm just very upset right now

Is pots deadly??? This is all so new to me I'm sorry I'm just very upset right now

Do my readings sound like pots?

But if I do it myself by taking my own pulse laying it was 80 and standing it was 100

Thank you very much! It is very nice to feel welcomed! Well let me start off by saying that I am a 20 year old female when my problems started I was about to graduate college.... It started out with random dizzy spells then one day I got dizzy then 10 min after I got the chills my heart was racing and I had diariah ... Then every time after I ate I had to run to the bathroom .... So one day I woke up with my heart racing it was up to 150 I went to the er after awhile it came down...my life was changed forever i hve many symptoms and I've had many many tests and nothing is wrong... I'm not sure weather it's all anxiety or pots or both
