A member asked:
Super lightheaded, foggy, & fatigued. tilt table test 1 hr ago normal. recent orthostatics lying 99/63, hr 54, standing 100/75, hr 87 abnormal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tilt table testing: has a poor sensitivity. Your orthostatic readings are abnormal with a greater than 20 BPM rise in HR. The diagnosis is made 80% of the time on clinical grounds and history, not testing. This is best evaluated and treated by an Electrophysiologist or Cardiologist. Get referred to one for best treatment options. Review Dr. Blair Grubb's websites for better understanding and treatment suggestions.
