POTS is rare: Pots is an infrequent entity whereas volume depletion is very common. Liberalize your salt intake (ie, eat salt), and drink plenty of fluids. If you exercise, drink a lot during and after exercise to replace perspiration. If you have diabetes, be sure it's very well controlled. Avoid alcohol and coffee which are diuretics (stimulate your kidneys).
