PoTS is a complicated disorder that manifests itself in a variety of ways. Symptoms vary and are often exacerbated by daily activities such as modes physical exertion or by diet. It can be defined as a persistent increase in heart rate of over 30 beats per minute or to higher than 120 beats per minute upon standing in excess of 10 minutes.

Do you struggle with PoTS? If so, do you exercise?
