I have been reading a ton on POTs and other conditions in this category. I found that one of the symptoms is sleep disturbance and unrefreshing sleep as well...I am now wondering if that is my problem as to why my sleep is such poor quality.
I have many common symptoms of this condition that have happened over the years but for some reason the doctor has never connected the dots...even though I always mention these symptoms.
I have low blood pressure all the time but do have the problems when standing for a long period of time...the sweats...massive tiredness....neuropathy pain (constant).
A few years ago I went to NC and got heat exhaustion to the point where I couldn't sweat. I had no tears and my mouth was extremely dry. This was the first time something like this had happened and I really think it was the beginning of all this.....
So actually my question is what exactly are the sleep problems associated with POTS? I haven't been able to find any listed...just unrefreshing sleep and disturbances.
I at least have a doctor who will take this seriously and if he feels I need any testing for this it will get done....I am fairly certain this (POTS) is actually a huge problem for me..thanks all
