From the Introduction
POTS — Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome — turns the simple act of standing up into something that requires planning. The heart races, vision dims, and the body's ordinary systems fall out of sync in ways that are hard to explain to people who cannot see them. Others who live with it understand without the explanation.

About this volume
Inside this volume
Fifty first-person accounts describe the diagnostic journey for POTS — often years in the making — and life afterward: managing triggers, finding approaches that help such as increased salt and fluid intake, compression garments, exercise rehabilitation, and medication, and the negotiation between what the body can do on a given day and what needs to happen anyway. The range of severity and experience across these voices is wide.
Who it's for
For those living with POTS and related dysautonomia conditions, their caregivers and families, and anyone who wants to understand what this invisible illness looks like from the inside.
