Every time I bend over (to put on shoes for example), my face turns red and I feel SO much pressure in my head. Does anyone else have this? You know how with the POTS blood pools in your arms and legs? It feels like blood is pooling in my head. It is much more severe in the evenings, and in the evenings I usually become SOB (short of breath) when I bend over and my head fills. Any thoughts?

Re: ‘HEAD FILLS WITH BLOOD WHEN BEND OVER’

I’ve had this all my life and just thought ‘everyone has this’…Not So…
I have been diagnosed / dx’d with ‘Multiple Sclerosis’ and CCSVI…
this was greatly relieved after my ‘liberation’ angioplasty Dec.2010…(seems
to be recurring, but I digress )

Q : I no longer have the ability to ‘perspire’ facially…just seem to
be intolerant of HEAT, feel increasingly warm – in ‘olde days’ I WOULD be
‘sweating buckets’…any one else have this? thanks! k

“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.”
