Someone responded to that and linked me to POTSplace and although it took me a while to realise that I did have symptoms of it, (I think I discounted it at first because I was exhausted with battling the doctors and in denial so I had a year of pretending to myself that I was fine, then 6 months after that, big big crash happened which forced me to re-evaluate and look into it again), once I did I found so many great resources and people. I also knew more about POTS than my cardiologist, which is why I ended up sacking him, LOL. He was rubbish, but thanks to the net again I found a great Doctor. <br /><br />Btw, I went away with my family- Mum Dad and Grandma, got back Friday evening, late- then went to my bfs for the weekend as we'd missed each other while I was away. We are hoping to go on holiday together sometime this year though. :-) xxLaurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13165664758841473845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7361411232118392730.post-63968741946230266902010-04-26T13:53:32.817-07:002010-04-26T13:53:32.817-07:00I believe the blogs, etc. are making a difference....I believe the blogs, etc. are making a difference. If it wasn't from blogs I had read way back when I was waiting to find out what was wrong with me, or waiting for the diagnosis, I don't know how I would've made it by. I got such great advice on what I could do at home, and it was amazing to find others who felt exactly like me! I knew more when I went back to see my Cardiologist than he knew about POTS! lol. Glad to see you're home and back at it, but glad you and your bf got away for a while and you're feeling better! :DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
