#PoTS is so much more than just a fast heart rate upon standing!
Quality of life can be equivalent to COPD and congestive heart failure.
Many patients are told that their physical symptoms are ‘all in their head’ and instead are given psychiatric labels of #anxiety & #depression.
Triggers: viruses, bacterial infection, pregnancy, surgery, a traumatic event, immunisation, hypermobility.
