Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS)
Dizziness, rapid heart rate, fatigue, or reduced standing and exercise tolerance associated with POTS.
What this condition is
POTS can affect how the body responds to standing and activity, causing symptoms such as lightheadedness, fatigue, palpitations, and exercise intolerance. A gradual, symptom-aware approach is important.
