I have pretty bad POTS and cannot go without compression stockings. Can anyone recommend a brand that offers ones suitable for exercise? I've tried "compression" sports leggings and working out with just compression socks, but these aren't as helpful as my usual stockings I wear daily--which are terribly uncomfortable to wear when exercising in hot weather!

the best are the basic hosp ones.for what they are meant for, however for exercise i am none the wiser.......but i would consult a cardiac nurse at ya local hosp, as they have excellent insider info to suppliers.
