POTS = postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome? (I just Googled it.) I'm glad you didn't hurt yourself more seriously and glad you got a diagnosis. Just goes to show that even chronic physical illnesses/conditions often aren't taken seriously if they're not immediately visible... :|

Did you end up on meds for the POTS? That'd be ironic, lol.

it would make the kids sad

There's kids involved? Sheesh, that makes it even more complicated. Are they your nieces/nephews, cousins, other?

Yep, that's the one! Unfortunately because mine is caused by an underlying condition, medication wouldn't do much for me and I have to be careful about taking anything that controls my heart rate or blood pressure because I constantly see-saw under and over what I should be. Staying hydrated helps because it keeps my blood volume stable. I eat more salt and drink gross sports drinks too so I can hold on to the water. I still have to be in bed most of the day though because my brain prefers to have good blood supply.

It would be nice if I had a physical thing to show people. I can show them my joint hypermobility, but people are like "oh you're flexible. that's cool."

My nephews (actually my cousins but I'm an old fart so they call my aunty). They're pretty anxious kids, and I don't want to cause them any stress. I usually have them for most of the holidays while their mother takes a vacation from not having a job or doing her own housework.

That sounds complicated and annoying. :(

I'm glad your nephews have such a cool aunty! :)
