I post this here not because of the specifics of the story or the condition under issue, though plenty of people on here have POTS. Rather, I post this because so many people with rare and invisible illnesses and symptoms, including on here, have been dismissed and ignored by conventional physicians, and all this at a time that they are most vulnerable. I've read so many such posts on here and elsewhere. I myself have posted about how I was told it was all in my head by two neurologists before I learned that they weren't even running the right test to diagnose me. Don't give up! You have to become your own best advocate.
