Does anyone know any medicine, food or alternative that gives instant relief for pots. For example before or after fainting. Something that could help?

      When I feel like I’m going to faint or after I faint I always take a few saltstick fast chews and it usually helps pretty quick! Especially if I drink some water with if, but sometimes that gets hard because I become very nauseous too.

      ^electrolyte drinks and salt and also this will sound weird but eating a really sour candy helps me when I’m feeling like I’m going to pass out !

      Lastly, have you tried Corlanor and checked your home from Mold (ERMI test)

      Also try taking Pepcid AC and and Claritin to help a possible/probable Mast Cell flare that may be causing the POTS

      LMNT electrolytes help me a lot with an episode. I drink a good amount of it quickly, and then put my feet up against the wall and lay down.
