I don't think Mast Cell Disorders or PoTS are commonly tested for in Scotland where I live. But I am hoping I'm wrong!
I was getting some relief from Piriton (not sure of possible alternative brand names in US?) but increasingly the relief is wearing off. I'm hesitant about researching PoTS too much until I know whether it is properly tested for or understood by the NHS in Scotland. I just feel I may end up getting more frustrated by doctors not knowing about stuff I've researched than if I let them do the detective work and tell me - if this makes sense?
