Today Dr. Allen Lifton is discussing POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome). POTS is a form of disautonomia affecting thousands of people often going undiagnosed for years. Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome is more common in young people and is often mistaken for anxiety or brushed off as nothing. If you've been feeling dizzy when you stand up, experiencing fatigue, brain fog or rapid heart rate this video could be useful for you.

What you'll learn:

What POTS is
How POTS is diagnosed
What causes POTS
Common symptoms of POTS
How POTS is treated (including lifestyle changes, medications, salt intake)

The 2:22 mark should say 30 points rather than 20 points**

If you have any questions, drop them in the comments and Dr. Lifton will do his best to respond to them.
