I do, POTS and SFN. I developed pots from 3 blood patches in my spine. I also suffer from New Daily Persistent Headache & Tarlov Cysts. It's so painful to exist everyday. Mine are all without explanation. 😥

you developed pots from blood patches? Wow, I didn't even realize that could happen.. did you have a csf leak? My neurologist is suspecting it, or some sort intracranial pressure issue, and I'm worried that a lumbar puncture could make me worse if I have either low pressure or a leak. She told me blood patches are the treatment for leaks. And I have an almost constant, daily headache too. It really is painful to exist every day.

I have most of them too, but I don't have lesions on my MRIs so for now I assume I don't have it. Who knows though with this stuff sometimes

Yes small fiber neuropathy and POTS, but I haven’t found the cause. I have every early MS symptom so I’m sure it has to do with that
