Hello.. im new.

I recently got diagnosed with fnd and I also have pots.

Since I'm so newly diagnosed (within a year)

I first noticed my pots was extra terrible in the beginning.. like I would have aheart rate of 60.. and if I stood up it'd go to 120.

Other times.. it spikes randomly while I sleep.. and it used to wake me up.

Sometimes going to light walks makes it shoot up to 114.

It affects my fnd by making the chronic areas of pain hurt more?

I am young (35) l but got it from lots of stress and I broke a rib and I used to be super athletic.

So ... it reactivates soreness in areas that were long healed.. like my ankle, my ribs, my knee. Even though those were considered healed.. it also makes me feel extra tired and shaky. I just tell myself my blood pressure is ok and I checked my heart and it was healthy.

I'm sorry you are going through this too
