COVID and POTS: Did it Worsen Your Symptoms?

If youve had covid before, did you notice any worsening in your POTS after or did you stay the same? And are you hyperadenergic (high blood pressure subtype)?

Covid didn't affect my pots. But months later now my hair us falling out🙄 an acquaintance of mine said she got something called inappropriate sinus tachycardia from having covid but is seemingly getting better from it.

Bijoux_bean22 I also have gastroparesis and while I dont know yet long term I am currently sick and dont see a big different in symptoms, only it dramatizing my POTS and muscle/nerve pain. Though, worsening of POTS and MCAS can worsen Gi issues due to complications with symptoms. I believe I have omicron as if I had the other types i would not be okay. The last virus I got gave me pneumonia and POTS so Im suspecting now shits gonna get worse after recovering.

I am just getting out of isolation tomorrow. I know it’s going to make the POTS and MCAS (Mast Cell Activation Syndrome) a nightmare but does anyone know how it can affect gastroparesis?

Yup, it’s made my pots (and associated chronic fatigue) much worse unfortunately :/ Still not sure exactly how to improve it but going to physical therapy has been helping (especially with the fatigue part) a bit.
