I have lived with the symptoms for like, a lot of time, yesterday I was sad for see my blood test and I felt unhoped, but it is the start for a treatment that put a stop to these symptoms, I'm like tired 24/7, and I can't live if the weather is hot, will take time find the right treatment, but is a thing, is doable

Yeah, thank goodness for modern science. I have similiar symptoms, but turns out to be severe iron deficincy - have to get infusions to keep the iron up because my body just doesn't absorb it correctly.

My mom was diagnosed with that and I suffer a lot of the same symptoms with my POTS, I'm so sorry you're going through that. I'm so happy you're able to get treatment. Best of wishes for you and your health

I never had cardiac issues, but I know that isn't easy living with that, I'm sorry for hearing that. I listened that it is heritable, but I didn't know anybody on the family with it
