▲ 9 r/POTS

just sitting outside for 2 minutes makes me sweat and my heart rate go up, if i stay out longer i risk passing out. i’m very heat intolerant and was wondering if anyone else on here is experiencing similar symptoms? I drink enough water, eat enough, my bloodwork results are fine. i got diagnosed with pots 5 years ago but i’ve always had problems with heat. my mom told me about how i used to pass out in the summertime playing with my friends when i was a child. Even just laughing a lot and getting hot can trigger and get me into pre syncope, it i can’t handle hot baths or showers either.. it’s so frustrating.
