i love how sometimes, despite all the medical advancements of the 21st century, the only thing that relieves pain is sitting/laying/standing in a weird position because it places/doesn't place pressure on certain spots

The chronic illness leaving my body after someone tells me to, and I quote, "Adapt" when I said I can't handle doing something because of my POTS.

#so fucking sick of this #keep that same energy when you need something #it will be time to adapt because I'm not helping #my goddamn chronic illness doesn't work on your fucking schedule #cry about it #I can't even get it to work on MY schedule #pots awareness #potsie #potsawareness #pots syndrome #pots #actually chronically ill #chronically ill #chronic illness #mibingo #mibingo vent

Small little rant/vent

I hate when I’m out with my service dog and people ask, and then they say “she will make someone very happy”.

She makes me very happy. She’s my service dog. Which I’ve already stated.

Look, I know I don’t look disabled, but invisible disabilities are still disabilities……

Starting TOMORROW, two of my mates are doing a 24-hour stream to raise money for POTS UK!

Jonas and Jamie are lovely guys, friendly and hilariously funny, and their podcast The Bunyip Review is one of the highlights of my month! They first agreed to do a 24-hour podcast three years ago — this has been a long time in the making but will doubtless be worth the wait 💜

The stream starts at 15:00 BST (that's 10:00 Eastern / 07:00 Pacific) on Saturday 1 July — come along and join the fun! All funds raised are going to POTS UK, a charity which promotes awareness and support for postural tachycardia syndrome.

Donations open now! bit.ly/24hourpod

Watch on Twitch: twitch.tv/thebunyipman

More tests incoming but my personal "it's probably POTS" opinion has been upgraded to a professional "I have to confirm with some testing before I formally diagnose you with POTS". I am honestly so grateful that this doctor brought it up instantly. I have had a lot of gaslighting from primaries and such, but this is my first specialist. I am lucky to have found them (via recommendation from others with POTS) so I don't have to fight for any more years without validation.

New med too, which is supposed to help a lot. Let's hope bc I can't take some of the normal ones for POTS due to interactions.

I was terrified because of previous experiences and because of how many POTSies fight for years to get answers even after they learn about POTS. I can breathe now, and start to brace myself for the hit that being officially diagnosed with a chronic physical illness is gonna take on me, assuming (and hoping) the checks for abnormalities come back normal.

Every day is like chronic illness roulette, it’s a blind guess at which one will act up next

So I’ve decided to be as chaotic as I can in that regard. Heheheheheheheeeeee

Hey so I didn't know about this tool and I think everyone who has POTS should because it's really useful!

You put in the amount of salt and it tells you how much sodium in mg that is. And then you can put how much you get from your diet and it tells you how much leftover in teaspoons you still need.
