Hyperadrenergic pots. it seems i finally have a diagnosis. what is the most effective treatment? i've read carvedilol and clonidine is good...

POTS syndrome: POTS is a new dx and may be too broad and over diagnosed. First, get a second opinion from another cardiologist to confirm this diagnosis. Second, It seems you are on alpha-agonist (clonidine) and blocker (Carvedilol). Doesn't make sense. alpha and beta blockers are contraindicated. see http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2600095/ for more information.
