  1. Hey everyone! Without fail every March/April and September/October I end up in a significant Pots flare, which has me wondering if you can have a seasonal/histamine related flare without any typical hayfever symtpoms? I never get any itchy eyes, sneezing, hives, rash, flushing, itching etc at all. But my dizziness, brain fog, shortness of breath and gut symptoms flare immensely. Does this happen to anybody else? Some of my specialists are encouraging me to try a H2 blocker (can’t tolerate the H1s) to see if it might help. Wondering if anybody else experiences this? Could one potentially have a seasonal flare that mainly triggers the gut histamine receptors?
  2. I know this thread is old, but just wanted to add in my 2 cents in case other people come back to it! I have been on Fludro for nearly 3 years and my sweet spot has been 3/4 of a tablet (my body weight is quite low). I actually would notice the effects diminishing every few months until I discovered that for some reason my tablets (the refrigerated version) lose their efficacy after about 8-10 weeks, instead of lasting the recommended 3 months. I now just swap my bottles over at the 2 month point and it's helped so much. It's been a game changing med for me. I also heartily agree with ANCY in that the meds did very little for me till I upped my salt and fluid intake (Salty chicken broth as my main fluid each day is what I tolerate best- adding salt to my food just didn't make a difference).
