I was wondering if anyone has experienced arm weakness and fatigue when tired, or just upon waking. It makes it difficult to do fine motor tasks. It's starting to get more frequent and was curious if this was related to POTS.

My arms can get tired. I sometimes get help doing my hair or doing something that involves reaching above my head because they get too tired and weak at a certain point.

yup. Hypersomnia is what I deal with. It’s a hard diagnosis.
