Does anyone else get tummy issues (diahreea) after passing out? I fainted at color guard practice today and after I recovered my stomach was hurting TERRIBLY. I've thrown up after passing out before but is the diahreea a common thing after fainting?

      Unfortunately yes. POTS can cause digestive issues. If I have a day with lots of flair ups, later or the next day I'm having to run to the bathroom.

      I think it happens because it’s similar to a visceral reaction if that makes sense

      I (thankfully) don't generally pass out but every time I'm flaring up I also get horrible diarrhea. Diagnosed with IBS before anybody even thought I might have POTS
