@Hip or @Alex Wouldn't this class of drugs (stimulants) like Ritalin or Adderall cause tachycardia? I always felt they were not an option for someone who already has POTS or unexplained tachycardia. I have no judgement against the meds (or really against any meds!) they just scare me for that reason.
I don't know for sure, and don't have the energy to investigate it just now. Maybe. Certainly this class of drug would not be for everyone. The person who most comes to mind who uses this, who I have discussed this with at some length, does not have POTS. Only arguably half of us have POTS. Most of us have some kind of OI though.
