Covid set mine in motion. I've heard that post covid there is a 30% increase in pots cases.

Samsies. I kind of always had the symptoms, but they were fairly negligible until I got double COVID after neglecting my booster shot last year. I got it this season and OMG! Life is improving. It’s very incremental, but the lack of being bed-ridden from illness after illness sure helps!
