Hey guys,
I'm new to this OI part of ME / CFS. Just did my poor man's tilt table test and here are the results:
After 10 minutes lying down:
BPM SYS DIA
65 128 66
Standing measured once per minute:
BPM SYS DIA
95 132 72
80 124 68
84 127 67
84 117 66
82 120 62
83 107 61
85 127 62
81 107 69
85 117 63
83 126 61
Conclusion:
Heart rate increases by 30 initially on standing up. No major change in blood pressure as far as I know?
Isn't this what one would expect from mitochondrial dysfunction. The most dense area of mitochondria is in the heart. When the heart requires more energy to pump round blood on standing the mitochondria haven't got it so the heart is forced to beat faster.
So are these results merely secondary to poor mitochondria function? (despite treatment mine is still not great).
Many thanks for your insights.
Best wishes,
J
