I’m sorry to hear that!

I see that be a really successful first step for many, but always ask your doc. I personally rely on symptom testing more than anything else!

As I mentioned in my other comment, I had a lot of success with symptom testing.

For some! Others don’t always respond well to H1/H2 blockers.

Cardiorespiratory work can be a game changer!

Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome: a form of dysautonomia which is a condition where you have a dysfunctional autonomic nervous system

Of course!

So many cardiologists don’t know much about POTS. It’s wild!

@ when i mentioned it, they said it COULD be mild pots but they doubt it. even though my blood pressure was 90/60 when i went in!

Which can be both a structural issue (you’re born with) and a functional issue with a tilted pelvis that you can do something about.

🤦🏻‍♀️ Highly disagree

Most people with anterior pelvic tilts have the same experience!

Same here

You’re in the right place!

Oh interesting idea! I’m not sure how to do it, but I’ll ponder on this. So glad you’re here. :)

I’m so glad!

POTS is a form of dysautonomia-a dysfunctional autonomic nervous system. But you’re right that none of this is black and white or a one size fits all and people should discuss symptoms with their doctor.

I’m so glad that you’re here!

Yes as long as the spine stays steady like a rod instead of rolling up! Love it. :)

😂 I’m not here to squash any postural dreams! Glad it’s helpful.

When it’s severe it can be completely disabling.❤️

I would say that in session my style is very geared towards that approach. And that really helps build neural connection. You’re so welcome. :)

@Healwithtracy yeah I did notice your approach towards helping people understand where they might be feeling the exercise, and where they need to be feeling it with each exercise. And what they may need to adjust. You do have a really awesome approach to help people be more mindful of how to get the work in the right area. As well as being conscious of timing breaths 💙💙💙 You do combine everything really well! And you make it really easy to follow (^_^)

Thank you 🥰

That’s somehow validating.🤣 you’re welcome!

@Healwithtracy awh bless you 💙💙💙 Could totally see it in your thumb (almost a right angle, and then you straighten it up), and the tips of your fingers hyperextending! Mine do the same (^_^) . I'm glad it helped 💙

You’re welcome! Glad you’re here.

This POTS stands for postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome.

I’m so happy they’ve been helpful. POTS often gets triggered by a life event like a virus, trauma, hormonal shifts, injury, etc.

The connection is via Hypermobility. ADHDers are more likely to have hypermobility disorders such as ehlers danlos syndrome and hypermobility spectrum disorder. Hypermobility has a very high Comorbidity rate to Dysautonomia (POTS is the most common form of dysautonomia). There are few studies directly relating ADHD to POTS, and more connecting ADHD to hypermobility and then hypermobility to POTS. The reason? Because of lack of awareness and funding. Which is why I’m here raising awareness. Studies onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/psyp.13850 www.hypermobility.org/post/joint-hypermobility-links-neurodivergence-to-dysautonomia-and-pain archivesofrheumatology.org/full-text/412#:~:text=Results:%20Benign%20joint%20hypermobility%20syndrome,with%20ADHD%2Drelated%20musculoskeletal%20symptoms. www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/link-between-adhd-and-hypermobility#:~:text=Is%20there%20an%20association%20between%20ADHD%20and%20hypermobility?&text=Yes%2C%20there%20is%20evidence%20of,than%20those%20without%20the%20syndrome. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7282488/#:~:text=DISCUSSION,55%25%20exhibiting%20generalized%20joint%20hypermobility. www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S1566070220302046#:~:text=Our%20findings%20in%20this%20large,manage%20and%20treat%20patients%2C%20to And there is one study that I know of stating that there was no correlation in their findings and I’ll put that below. But I see two major flaws with this study: They used a very small number of subjects (20, I believe?) And POTS patients are female more often than male. Females often are misdiagnosed with anxiety or other mental illness diagnoses instead of ADHD because it looks different in females vs. males and the DSM IV mainly bases criteria off of studies done on boys. So with this small of a group that is likely predominantly female, there is a larger chance of inaccuracy in the conclusion. The study literally says that subjects with POTS are highly likely to have anxiety. My autism and ADHD were personally misdiagnosed as anxiety until I was 32 because I’m a woman. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC2758320/#:~:text=Post%2Dhoc%20analysis%20showed%20a,groups%20(P%3D0.115).

It is so much more complicated than that, but it can absolutely be triggered by viral infections due to mast cell activation. I talk about this in the related video at the bottom of this one. That doesn’t take away the Comorbidity rates.

Do you have tight hamstrings/calves?

👋

It’s a form of autonomic nervous system dysfunction that can affect essentially every system of our bodies and greatly impact our quality of life. There’s a related video at the bottom of this one with steps that can often help stabilize symptoms.

@Healwithtracy is dizziness or vertigo like symptoms associated with it? Because I experience that a lot with ADHD.

I’m so glad!

They've told me the same thing. Had 1 dr tell me it was black out panic attacks, but they happen at the oddest times. I will be flowing this one to find out more

They told me the same thing until we finally discovered it was POTS.

There are things that can help though! It’s a complex puzzle.

lol my stimulants seems to gotten rid of most of the symptoms minus the black out feeling when bending down. Those symptoms come back though when i try to do a medication break 😞

Not enough people talk about this!

​@Healwithtracy because only docters need to be aware of it! People go to the doctors when they think somethings wrong and they will get diagnosed through lab testing! My mother has pots

I’m glad you’re finding answers!

I have so many issues with math and numbers. I think because I was good at reading and writing that I didn't need help with anything else but I badly needed help with math. Anything beyond basic addition and subtraction is impossible for me unless I was giving half my waking hours to studying with another student with the same issues. For some reason it helped me if it wasn't just me.

Do you ever deal with a heartbeat that goes below 60 bpm as well? (Along with intermittent tachycardia)

​@@Healwithtracy my mom does. They've been testing her heart for 2+ years nd can't figure out why her beats go so low.

Its a fancy way of saying you're dehydrated. Drink more water, wear compression socks

​@@Healwithtracythat's sounding more like tachy brady syndrome.

Are you saying you have both hEDS and vEDS? Studies are shared in the description if you’re wanting to see numbers. It is also not proven that these are rooted in mast cells, although it is a hypothesis. I believe many cases of POTS are rooted in MCAS, but again, not proven.

@Healwithtracy yes, an unkown Subtyp that has the Trades of both. I got IT in Papier by genetic Testing in a Hospital

@Healwithtracy No, i habe Classic EDS & Vaskular EDS. ITS a unkown Type.

@@Healwithtracy but i got a test in a Hospital, so i know IT for Sure. But i know, almost everything about EDS & etc ist mostly now Researched. For Example the German goverment startet to Accept EDs 3 years ago. Sice than, i got Special Testing of Aorta which i need to surrvive tho ^^

What? lol

Hahaha im Sure you dont know what youre talking about

There’s a related video at the bottom of the screen with steps to stabilize POTS symptoms.

No cure 😂 just get along with IT & life AS healty AS possiable so you can Life a "normal" life

Theres no cure. Its chronic

You don't

🫶 you’re not alone. But it’s possible to feel better!

Low blood volume is a symptom of POTS that can lead to dizziness and fatigue…and dehydration can exacerbate low blood volume! But not saying this is the case for you.😂

Yes my channel is for EDS and HSD. I personally have EDS.

Absolutely. I didn’t elaborate on exercise enough which is why I wrote a note on it in the description. Yoga can be a contraindication for some as well. I love emphasizing to do what is best for your specific body. Thanks for chiming in and you’re so welcome!
