Hi Mortigger
Hope you are ok, you do seem a little anxious,, but it’s normal, everyone on here has been there, and some are still there. You mention a couple of diagnoses and a few symptoms so it’s difficult to gage exactly wht might be going on, but yes some of your symptoms might fall under the realms of dysautonomia and POTS. Have you done any Internet research, alongside this excellent site? Another is http://www.potsuk.org and http://www.dinet.org. Some useful info here and will help you assess your own symptoms against the criteria for POTS. But try not to fret, it might be that you don’t have POTS. I think on both sites it lists doctors that test for autonomic dysfunction In the UK, http://www.potsuk.org/doctors_list2 is the link on the POTS website. A gp referral is usually needed. Not a long list but usually includes a specialist in each region, so south west, south east, midlands etc… Not sure where you are. But feel free to ask anything, people are friendly on here and I willing to offer thir knowledge and wisdom. Look at one of Dr Diana’s excellent and informative videos, also a good place to start…:)

“Dr. Diana will always hold a very special place in my heart for her selfless devotion to helping everyone, not just the Ehlers-Danlos community. I hate to think what my life would be without her insight and guidance.”
