Does any one else’s fatigue feel feverish? But no actual fever
So I just got diagnosed with POTS today. Mine is due to a COVID infection and I also have MCAS & possibly EDS. I was told to exercise but I’m kinda scared to in case I have ME/CFS too…
I was wondering what POTS fatigue feels like? For me, say I am walking, about 10 minutes in I’ll start to feel kinda feverish. The type of fatigue you feel when you’re about to get a cold. I don’t have any actual fever but my forehead feels warm.
Also happens after mental strain, like a phone call.
I don’t have any other symptoms like sore throat, pain ect. It just feels like I’m a bit run down.
I’m just wondering if this is common with POTS?
Also my POTS/fatigue came on 9 months after my initial COVID infection. Happened after I was in extreme pain from my period (I have adenomyosis) Fatigue wasn’t one of my symptoms before and I think I had mild POTS which got worse after this event. I suddenly had dizziness, heart palpitations, fatigue ect which lead me to get a POTS diagnosis.
Anyway would love any insight on what POTS fatigue should feel like.
