Living with POTS: My Experience and Tips for Management

Hey! My Dr put me on a steroid and it has helped A TON. I'm talking like I'm a new person lol. I meet with my Dr this week to talk about more treatment options

hi!! i moderate to severe POTS so if you wanna talk about it feel free to dm me on insta @xx_dr0ws3_xx <3

I’ve been able to manage mine with a beta-blocker, compression socks, increased water and salt intake, and lots and lots of rest breaks at work.

Hi Bell! I’ve been battling pots my entire life as well. I didn’t get a diagnosis until about 3 years ago and it was the most frustrating journey of my life. I’m still learning new ways to cope and treat my body with kindness! I would love to talk to you about it! My dms are open :)

I’ve had POTS since I was ~15 but had a pretty “hands off” (read: borderline negligent) doctor up until last year. Other doctors tried to help and even recommended my new cardio. My new doctor is fantastic and administered my TTT and diagnosed me officially immediately! This summer I’m probably going to enroll in the POTS PT clinic. My DMs are open if you want! 🤗

I’ve been treating my pots for about a year now. I’ve had it most of my life but finally got my TTT and official diagnosis in January. I’m currently not working and still trying to find a treatment that works but I’d be willing to chat if you ever wanna DM me!

Hey! I'd be happy to share about my experiences with it. Mine is a mild form and I do not have dull syncope (pass out). Feel free to DM me 🙂
