So this morning, as soon as I opened my eyes to wake up, I started hiccupping. They lasted for about 15 minutes (was consistently holding my breath, doing vagus nerve reset, and drinking water). Since then, my hr has just been high all day, probably about twenty points above where it usually is. It feels a bit like the hiccups were the beginning of a flare.

Has anyone else woken up with hiccups first thing in the morning? This has never happened to me before that I can remember and it was just such an odd experience.

I know a lot of people here also experience bradycardia... Out of curiosity, what does it feel like when you get bradycardia? Is it always accompanied by a change in blood pressure? Does it feel different than typical POTS symptoms? Does it affect your heart rate after having a bradycardia episode (ie: does your resting heart rate go down for several hours/days after you experience bradycardia)? Would love to hear anyone's experiences!

Does anyone else have POTS or tachycardia? I was recently diagnosed with POTS after having been previously diagnosed with PCOS/PMOS a few years back. The symptoms overlap quite a bit in some ways, and I think I have had POTS for a very long time, but my symptoms were missed/dismissed by doctors because of my weight gain. Apparently, there is a connection between POTS and PCOS/PMOS, and many people have both. If anyone here has both, I would love to hear your experiences or even about some of the struggles of treating/diagnosing both POTS and PCOS/PMOS.
