I really want to be able to exercise i wish i could but anytime i try i cant breathe and my heart races and im not on any treatement for my POTS as i was told its mild so i dont need anything but a ton of giant salt tablets a day and they told me there was no cure or medication for POTS (2 different doctors from seperate hospitals) but im trans and dysphoric so working out would make me feel better about myself but i physically cant do it any advice?

Based on the experiences shared by others, it's recommended to start slowly with exercise and not push yourself further than needed. Set a heart rate goal and don't pass it. Monitor how your body reacts and adjust accordingly. Low-impact exercises like short walks, stretching, or small exercises while lying down like leg lifts or arm circles can be beneficial. Some have found Pilates, recumbent bike, and aquatic therapy helpful as these are low impact and can be done at your own pace.
