POTS: Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome. Basically blood flow is not going to the right place at the right time to do what the body need to. I out of 100 teens have pots. Treatment can be tailored to each individual patient, specially if an underlying cause is discovered. No heart damage associated. Continue close follow up by your physician.
