Holy shit. I was not expecting that response. You obviously take your health seriously.
If there’s anything to say it’s thank you for such a real description.
Finally, someone with EDS who takes modafinil! I read it’s used off-label for CFS so I was thinking of trying to get it from my doctor. what does it do for you? And are the other drugs worth looking into as well?
I’m sorry I don’t have anything to add about POTS. I’ll look around for you though!
