Great post and graphic about the breadth of POTS symptoms. #Dysautonomia #POTS #POTSparents
Dysautonomia: Medicine's Underrecognized Condition Autonomic dysfunction extends beyond POTS or orthostatic intolerance. It is the driver of neurological dysfunction, disrupting cognition, cardiovascular regulation, gastrointestinal function, sleep and quality of life.

Medication recall! Does your kiddo take generic Zyrtec? Check to see if your brand has been recalled. #Dysautonomia #POTS #POTSparents

POTS may be a neuroimmune disorder. #Dysautonomia #POTS #POTSparents
More studies from different groups are coming out suggesting that #POTS may be a neuroimmune disorder with downstream effects on cardiovascular, GI and other manifestations. My comment on the topic. heartrhythmopen.com/article/…

Glad to be a part of the consensus-2 diagnostic criteria for mast cell activation syndrome #MCAS and this new review. MCAS is comorbid with #dysautonomia and #EDS, and the most frequent comorbidity of MCAS is #POTS (from our prior study). degruyterbrill.com/document/…
