Are you struggling with POTS or dysautonomia and feel dizzy, off-balance, or unsteady?
If so, you've likely thought it's due to cardiovascular issues with not getting enough blood flow, not enough hydration, or needing more electrolytes and salt. But what if this isn't actually the issue?
Which, if you've been dealing with POTS and dysautonomia for a couple years, you either believe this is the way life is going to be or you need to realize that something is being missed.
In my years of treating these complex cases, I found that the vestibular system is routinely off in the overwhelming majority of these patients. Unfortunately, because it's approached as a cardiovascular issue, you will never get a vestibular evaluation.
The thing is, when your vestibular system is off, you do not regulate your autonomic nervous system appropriately. And that includes your blood pressure and heart rate. That's why we evaluate it on every single patient and if it's off, we have a plan to address it.
It's when you get a complete evaluation and a complete treatment plan that's when you get your life back. It's not when you do a small fraction of what the story should be.
