Reply To: Drinking water made POTS symptoms worse until I almost passed out. Anyone know why this could be?
Hi Shelbo, How much water did you drink? If Diamox was helping for a while, then stopped or made symptoms worse, it could be that your CO2 was shifting. We need CO2 to remain at or above 22mmol/L to work. Are you and your doctors monitoring your electrolyte levels? It’s essential, believe me! 😉
