I have pots syndrome.i'm been fatigued & down for months.my vit d level is only 21.should i see if supplements help first before changes in pots meds

POTS: Low vitamin D may be associated with fatigue, joint pains, and even depression. I do recommend being seen by a specialist before starting supplementation so that a baseline and other underlying diseases may be assessed. Vitamin D is a vitamin required by muscles and bones which is an area that rheumatologists managed. I will be happy to do a consult if needed.
