anyone here with POTS?

I just recently found out that I have POTS and my Dr said we could try a beta blocker it wasn't necessary but said if I were his daughter he would try it. I was prescribed toprol I haven't started it yet. I was wondering if anyone else has this and what they do to help I know exercise is a big part of treatment but I'm afraid to exercise since when I stand up my heart rate can go as high as 130 then to 150 just from walking around in the kitchen. I don't know anyone else who has this.

This forum is running a little slow for now, but hopefully someone will come by.
I would say to do your best to keep active, even if it raises your bp, just that maybe wear medical tags or medical id's that say heart condition and then maybe a reference to pots. I carry a medic alert id card and the bracelet sometimes..
Also you can maybe do a google search on pots/heart condition.
Hope this helps and please stay with us on healingwell and posts updates.
When is your next follow up?
