We're currently at around 630 signatures and we couldn't be happier! When our friend and I made the petition while hanging out at a café, we debated whether or not 500 signatures would be unreachable. I suggested 1k so the petition had a chance of getting somewhere, it felt like a stretch. I never could have imagined that we'd get so much support so fast! So I want to thank everyone who has helped in this endeavor, every one of you matter!

Have a great timezone everyone! 1k here we come!

Does anyone else experience full blackouts in both eyes almost every time they stand up, stretch or bend over?

From my understanding, I am diagnosed with a fairly severe case of hypovolemic POTS, in which my heart rate will spike to roughly 180bpm upon standing - but I was wondering if anyone else experiences this. The blindness will usually last 15 to 30 seconds and will be complete absence of light and visuals in both my eyes. Obviously accompanied with dizziness, leaden limbs, sharp buzzing pain in head and tingling in extremities.
