A member asked:

Could my anxiety be caused by pots? i have severe situational anxiety and it leads to terrible unbearable physical symptoms. i also display about half of pots signs on the reg. could my anxiety be treated along with possible pots? could it relate?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Characteristic symptoms of POTS are palpitations brought on by rapid heart rate, lightheadedness or fainting after getting up from a reclining position and rather quickly relieved by sitting or lying back down. Certainly anxiety can occur with those classic symptoms. Rather than POTS,I think your anxiety may bring on symptoms similar to those of POTS. Stress management should be helpful for you.
