Seeking Advice on Getting Saline Infusions for POTS Before Honeymoon

So I have POTS and I’m supposed to go on honeymoon in Florida in 5 weeks, and I’m curious about getting saline infusions before going. I’m seeing my cardiologist on July 14, do you think she’d give me the saline infusion prescription? How do I ask and dose anyone else here get them?

I get infusions for pots once a week. They’re very helpful! The only downside is they only last about 3 days or so

I think it's worth asking. I know a lot of fellow POTSIES use a drink mix called IV therapy.

I'm not quite sure what that prescription is but personally I take electrolyte capsules by saltstick. I just call them salt pills. I'm not taking them while I'm pregnant but I took them every day before and they were very helpful in helping me function.
