Chronic Illness on Sidechat | Okay so I did a little at home tilt-table test and monitored my BPM laying down for 10 minutes and then stood up and within 30 seconds it went from 50 bpm to 110. I’m suspecting POTS. I have an appt with a heart doctor Monday, any tips/advice

See if they can do the “poor man’s tilt table test” instead of the real thing. The results are no less reliable and it’s less torture to go through

TILT table is outdated and so pointless and not worth the time at all doctors office. Someone who has POTs avoid that table test at all cost!!

Exactly! It is completely unnecessary to go through the torture it inflicts!
