What could be the cause of poor circulation and tachycardia?

0

My son has postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS). Some of your symptoms sound like this. My son went undiagnosed for months because you really need to see a doctor that is familiar with this condition. My son’s cardiologist is one of the best in the field. If it is suspected that you might have this the way to find out for sure is with a head up tilt table test. My son had this done. If he is laying down his symptoms are normal. When he stands, his heart races, his blood pressure goes up, his pulse rate increases, he gets dizzy, light headed, his legs get weak, he blacks out, his blood pools in his stomach. The blood doesn’t get up to your heart where it needs to be. Just tell your doctor about all of your symptoms. Keep POTS in the back of your mind if you cannot get a diagnosis. I don’t want anyone to suffer as long as my son did without a diagnosis. I’m not saying you have this, I’m not a doctor, but keep it in mind.
