Скачать или смотреть What is POTS? 🍳🥴🧠(postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome)

POTS is considered to be under the dysautonomia disorders umbrella which are disorders of the autonomic nervous system. It is basically an inability of the body to compensate for changes in posture. When we stand up because of gravity blood gets pulled to our lower extremities and in a healthy person, it compensates in the cardiovascular system to send blood back to the brain. When you have POTS this system is defective and your blood does not return properly to the brain. This causes many symptoms such as dizziness, blurred vision, syncope, nausea, racing and irregular heart rate (as the heart tries to compensate for this lack of oxygenation by pumping faster), chest pain, shortness of breath, headaches, fatigue, brain fog, blurred vision and the list goes on.
Now imagine this happening every time you stand up? Life would become very difficult. Imagine how hard it would be to get groceries, have a shower, cook, clean, dry your hair, stand up in lines...
And all of that is completely invisible to an outsider, except when we black out and fall on the floor.

I’m Daniela I have been diagnosed with several chronic illnesses. I look normal, I do things, have a job and go on vacations, but inside I'm sick. I live with several chronic illnesses and they affect my daily life. I am in constant pain and struggle with brain fog. Although I'm constantly looking for new doctors, new treatments and solutions I have also accepted my illnesses and do not let them define me. In this channel, I share a little bit of everything. Information about my conditions, my travels, my dreams, my journey, my life. This channel is about life through chronic illness lenses. Come and join me and see what I'm up to lately.
