pots and IST.

Living with pots and IST is exhausting. Your heartbeat is almost constantly fast. You end up with huge bouts of fatigue because it’s racing and racing away. People don’t understand. They just think I’m lazy etc. It’s not that. It’s the fatigue and constant pounding of my heart that is causing it. The coldness is due to poor temperature control. Yet still people do not understand. I’m going to have to try and eat dinner now, knowing that my heart has just slowed down a little, but when I eat, it will speed up. This is what happens to me almost every day. It’s hard. I have to try and study, alongside the fatigue, brain fog. Coldness even though it’s not cold according to others! I hope everyone is well.
