Think I have POTS
Hello, I am a Newbie here on this board. Nice to meet you all.
I have all the symptoms of POTS - dead ringer. They thought I was having VAGALS - very similar - but with the widerange of symptoms I am experiencing, and the DEAD RINGER MY PIC by the description, I'm thinking it's POTS. Go to Cardio next week.
This started for me while having serious gallbladder problems. I had to have rush surgery thinking it was connected to the GB. I also have Mild Fatty Liver disease.
The symptoms somewhat subsided while in the hospital getting saline drip and re-appeared 2 days after arriving home. I was in YIPEE FORM until they returned. Thought they were over. They were sooooooooo very, very, very severe, I was face down...and lost 14 lbs.
I have severe Fibro/CFS/MCS and a host of back/spinal/nerve problems of which I've had a LOT OF EPIDURAL INJECTIONS.
I'm scared........how much more can I live with...how many more SYMPTOMS that have to be managed in a minute to minute manner.
I am distressed of this latest reveal but also a little excited that they might finally know what has been wrong with me for a long time. I had symptoms of this for over 2 years, though I know some folks go years and years before finding out.
There may be a lot of symptoms, but when a person reads them, they are like = THEY WROTE THAT ABOUT ME !
Do I need Cardio, Neuro, Endo or all of the above ???
Thanks for reading and nice to meet you all.
GOOD HEALTH TO EVERYONE, Chocolate48
