So my POTS has graduated to the point I now pass out during panic and anxiety attacks or when I get spooked. Its like I hyperventilate for five seconds then drop and when I come too it feels I have been hit by a bus. Was wondering if anyone else deals with this. My SNS is so sensitive someone tossing an object to me when Im not prepared almost gets me to faint.
I don’t pass out but I do lose my vision and hearing going into presyncope for the same reason. It’s super scary which I know isn’t helpful but I hope it makes you feel a little less alone 🤗
@unluckyunicorn well thats good to know, it does help. It was really scary the first few times and now I dive for the floor when I have coughing fits or panic attacks. Its such shit lmao 🤗
