I’m frustrated being out of school due to 2 concussions from POTS in July this year.. had a hypotensive flare where my blood pressure dropped into the 60s/40s for a couple days and I was hospitalised 2 weeks ago. It’s been a rough last 4 months with 5 hospitalisations. I’m just exhausted. I wish life would resume normalcy…. I look forward to being fitted with my wheel chair this coming Monday. Hopefully that will give me more independence. Requiring large amounts of fluids through my port to keep my blood pressure up means I am home bound a lot. I don’t know how I’ll return to working in the hospital and going to school when my medical leave ends.
