ROUND 2- just finished 6 more days at the hospital. That makes a total of 14 days. Finally figured out what is wrong with me- POTS. Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia syndrome. In normal-speak that means that when I stand up my blood pressure drops and my heart rate goes up- like to 140 beats per minute. I was the kind of girl that couldnt take a birth control pill consistently and now I am on 11 pill a day. Oh well, at least I can actually get up and move around… a little. Oh and I have to eat 8 grams of salt a day…. the normal American diet is about 1gram. I have to suck on bullion cubes… yuck.
