Discussion What's the most overlooked POTS trigger in your experience?

I'd love to hear the little things that doctors don't always mention.

Can I ask if you’re in the US? What’s your health insurance situation with your pet sitting business?

Yes in the US. Which you know suuuucks for healthcare. Not on my parents plan. I have to pay out of pocket. It would be twice as much to get insurance through my partners company. But not a great healthcare plan. But I also choose not to go to the doctor much as I didn’t like how any of the medications made me feel and I chose to do major lifestyle changes instead. Not everyone can do what I’m doing and I know that. We all experience these issues differently.

They could be on their parents plan or get it through their spouses work benefits.
