Hi, I'd like to know if anyone here also has POTS? I had my first appointment with a rheumatologist yesterday, she thinks I may have POTS. I did a standing test and heart rate increased by over 30+ beats per minute which is one of the main symptoms, along with dizziness when standing up, hands & feet being cold and discoloured, fatigue, headaches, shaky legs, and lots more.
I hadn't heard of it before, will be having a TILT test to confirm diagnosis. It's interesting as the symptoms are very similar to thyroid symptoms, with main difference being that fast heart rate and other symptoms are relieved by lying down.
