i got my first job recently and the stress and anxiety has made staying upright very difficult, especially during "power hour"/rush hour I think im gonna try to bring gatorade and chips to work to alleviate my symptoms and if that doesn't help I might need to go back on fludrocortisone ?? I like my job, i really dont want to lose it to chronic illness šŸ˜­

      Hi there! From my experience as a POTSie and coach for pots peeps, foods with chemicals and artificial stuff rob the body of energy, making us more sluggish. (Most POTS people donā€™t do so well with processed things). I look at food as fuel for the mitochondria. I like LMNT electrolytes and balanced meals with protein, veggies and a gluten free carb such as brown rice to stabilize sugarsšŸ¤— I hope you love the new job!

      Definitely bring compression socks and request to be able to take a break mid-rush hour!
