Hi everyone!
My name is Rebekah, I am 28 yo and new here! I’m married to my hubby David and the mama of our 9 month old boy, Owen! Excited to be finding answers after years of confusing and difficult symptoms.
I am wondering if any of you have experienced what I’ve experienced, or if my other symptoms are more rare/less typical. I do have POTS (not all the time, but sometimes), but I also have:
Reactive hypoglycemia (non-diabetic)
Vasovagal syncope
Hypotension
Arrhythmia and elevated pulse, especially while exercising
Constipation/diarrhea
Incomplete bladder emptying
Mild photophobia (have to wear sunglasses a lot/can’t see well at night because of headlights)
Ptosis in one eye
Sleep issues (fainting during sleep; paralysis; waking hallucinations; etc)
Poor memory/brain fog
So... can anyone relate to these? For years I just thought I was a weirdo with all these random problems but now I know they are connected!!! Which is kinda relieving in a way
