Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome

[ejssullivan]

Does anyone else have POTS on here or other dysautonomia? or does any one have any questions for any one who does?

Currently, they think I have some sort of vasovagal syncope... POTS has been theorised, but not in any way talked about thoroughly.

What is a vasovagal syncope? I vaguely remember hearing that term but I'm not sure what it is.

 

[Tipster]

Collapses onset by a lack of oxygen to the brain. Usually due to an inherent low blood pressure.


Unfortunately, mine is a bit more severe in its symptoms and results in amnesia upon regaining of conciousness.


:/

Oh that doesn't sound good.
