The tilt: table test is fairly diagnostic (and therefore probable rule in or out!) The numbers are pretty meaningless. If you are SYMPTOMATIC however there are medications which will help even if you do NOT have "classic" POTS Hope this helps! Dr Z

Does your BP have to drop with the tilt table test to have pots. Iv fainted many times but they never catch the fall in bp, upon standing hr is 180?
During tilt table test, my BP stayed fairly stable, I didn't pass out, but felt close/miserable... HR 65-72 up to 155... POTS? What test still needed?
I am currently awaiting a tilt table test to diagnose pots. I am being treated for it and helping somewhat but is this going to be lifelong?
