    Just saw a Stanford neurologist who basically told me previous diagnosis of POTS based upon testing in doctor office was not acceptable because it was Not a tilt table test. I have ME/CFS. Normally this doctor, like many neurologists she normally refuses to see CFS patients. But my primary called her. She told me all my problems are due to deconditioning. She refused to do tilt table test for me. She was contemptuous of the Stanford CFS clinic saying they recommend rest “...but we here at neurology believe in exercise.” I even have testing that shows my anaerobic threshold occurs at 78 bpm. Will not be going back to Stanford for anything. Doctors gaslighted me.

      Appreciate Video! Forgive me for the intrusion, I would appreciate your opinion. Have you tried - Taparton Sturdy Nerves Takeover (erm, check it on google should be there)? It is an awesome one off guide for Getting rid of Neuropathy without the headache. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my buddy after a lifetime of fighting got amazing results with it.

      Thanks for the Video clip! Apologies for butting in, I am interested in your initial thoughts. Have you ever tried - Zeyames Wonliver Breakthrough (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now)? It is a smashing one off guide for discovering the simple way to end diabetic nerve pain and neuropathy without the hard work. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my work colleague at very last got cool success with it.

      That particular neurologist , (what is her name please?). Is going with her uneducated opinion. Too lazy to study any new information she remains a know-it-all while knowing nothing. There is very obvious reasons why de conditioning happens and it’s not laziness or sudden withdrawal from usual activities. Over time the exertion one needs to complete any activity increases greatly. Weather it’s due to decreased availability of energy to the body, decreased nerve conduction to run the muscles or just due to increasing pain of daily activities and previously enjoyable activities. It is something chemical or mechanical, biological. It is not due to laziness or depression. That neurologist is an abusive bitch. For me it was pain and a sense of lightheadedness and racing heart beat upon exertion. You just cannot force yourself to exercise through a level 8-10 pain. It’s not going to happen. Accompanied by dizziness to the point of vision going black, having to hold on to something so I wouldn’t fall or just sit right down on the ground it’s not something that a person can just overcome. It doesn’t let up. It’s ever present. You end up painted into the corner of your couch and bed barely able to fix a meal and keep yourself clean.

Though I have found complaining to any of the managed care systems always fail. You have to be persistent and insistent to be heard and that takes energy. When you don't have the energy to walk across the room you can't spare any energy for complaining or worrying. I am turning to Ayurveda and Advaita Vedanta teachings.

    I have quite a few similar symptoms: pupils reacts different, I overheat and oversweat, I get fatigued quickly, I have a very high resting heart rate (being treated), I have refux and I can faint if I exercise too much (I used to do martial arts and if I didn't stop when I started to feel the blood drain, I knew I would faint and it could happen 3-4 times a session but I loved MMA).

    There are so many other treatments that could have been used besides from conventional medications which often cause unwanted side effects.Traditional Chinese Medicine could be employed to treat the underlying causes of autonomic nervous system dysfunction and improve the autonomic balance of the body without unnecessary side effects. People often ignore holistic treatments and trust explicitly in mainstream pharmaceutical medications which may not treat the underlying causes of the condition.

    I felt like a normal person again after being on Hartmann's IV Saline Solution for one hour during endoscopy/colonoscopy. I'd been suffering POTS for months (since GI surgery) and it totally reversed the feeling. It wore off after about three days. Have asked my GP, my cardiologist and my upper GI surgeon if I can have regular IV saline sessions and they all refused. I just don't understand their attitude when it's the only thing that helped me. A year later and I'm now in even worse shape. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

      I recovered from dysautonomia (developed after COVID) when I figured out the cause (the medical profession is clueless). My dysautonomia turned out to be caused by wireless electronics, also known as electromagnetic hypersensitivity. When I eliminated all wireless devices from my immediate environment. I recovered fully. EVERY symptom resolved. No cell phone, no wifi, no laptops, no apple watches, no I pad, no smart utility meters, etc. These devices all run on high frequency electricity that travels at the speed of light through the air we breath. These high frequency electromagnetic fields are what transfers data between wireless devices. Unfortunately, EMF's can also disrupt the autonomic nervous system. I am a retired physician, previously a board certified general surgeon. I doubt my profession will ever figure this out. I have tried to tell them.

      As somebody who has had dysautonomia for decades if not throughout my life, I'd say it's a bit of a chicken and egg problem.
      That is, one either gets dysautonomia because one puts too much stress hormones in the body due to extreme work/emotional stress or because the body is fighting something (like Lyme disease) and thereby provides an excessive amount of stress hormones to the body, which increases the capacity to work.
      That is, often there can be a genetic component to dysautonomia, as in having naturally higher stress hormone levels than others, which leads to the slow development of the disease (as in stress hormones narrow blood vessels, which reduces blood volume (= the reason for increased heart rate or fainting upon standing), which increases the need for stress hormones, which reduced the blood volume further - and there, the perfect deteriorating cycle of the disease).
      That is, you are completely correct. Stress is a factor but the question is what is the source.
