I'm seeing a cardiologist and have a lot of upcoming tests on my heart (pots, stress echo, etc). Randomly through out the day I get heart pain, racing heart, palpitations, etc. I'm wondering if anyone else who has RCPD also deals with this and it could be related to trapped gas.
I've been waiting for literally a year to get in for a tilt test and my test was only 10 min long.
Prior to beginning she told me it would only be 10 mins from laying flat to standing.
I was honestly shocked compared to the research I had done prior, videos, reading everyone else's experiences, etc.
I went from laying flat to only being brought up once, monitored for 5 mins, and being done.
I'm not sure what the results will be, but I feel like after a year waiting list more would be done for a diagnosis.
Does anyone else have low platelets with their pots? I'm wondering if there's a connection...
My concealer was discontinued and I searched for a new one and after almost 15 of them I liked kosas. I've been using it for exactly 1 year, but a few months ago I started having an issue around my eyes and on my eyelids with this rash. I do not wear any other makeup except this.
Has anyone else developed a rash with it? I went to my eye doc who told me she thought dermatitis and to use vaseline, but I'm starting to think it's more of a contact dermatitis/allergy from kosas.
When I stretch my toes on my right foot my pinky toe goes downward, but not on my left (my left also isn't as strong in general).
Does anyone else's look like this?! Everyone in my family said it isn't normal lol
The first pic is relaxed, 2nd flexed.
I've had this on both eyes for the past 2 months.
My only thought is dry eye or allergies.
I work under a mag lamp all day and do suffer from bad eye strain and my eyes water a lot.
I wear daily contact lenses and the only makeup I wear is concealer and brow makeup which is the same for over 10 years. No new serums, creams, etc.
Has anyone else experienced this?
Does anyone else get morning stomach pain? I'm trying to figure out what my flare ups are. So far I know it's caffeine and sugar. Right now I'm coming to the conclusion that it's red meat although I didn't have any yesterday and my stomach kills this morning
I don't drink alcohol, I'm on pepcid for acid issues, I use ginger drops, drink pure aloe, take a probiotic and try to do everything right.
I started eating more turkey instead of red meat, but last weds after my brain MRI with contrast I had a horrible stomach ache from the contrast. It has continued since and the only thing I can think of is I had red meat 3xs since then.
Anyone else?

We've had a stray roaming around since winter (I've seen on my ring cam) we had 90+ temps this week and I saw it so I fed it and gave it water. He's been hanging around now and so loving. It looks pretty healthy minus it gets goopy stuff in it's eyes. I'm currently trying to find him a home. I was petting it this morning and it playfully bit me. I washed with soap and water and just alcohol which didn't sting, but the spot got a little swollen and pink. My boyfriend said it doesn't look like it punctured the skin, but now I'm paranoid. Should I get rabies shots?
I'm about to turn 39 and seeing this all over the headlines did not help my anxiety.
We bought a new whirlpool refrigerator about 6 months ago. It has 3 settings-low, ideal, and high. I have it on high and things still didn't feel that cold. I bought a thermometer and it is at about 38 to 39.
Is this normal?
I'm so paranoid my food isn't safe to eat and keep throwing things away.
I have a spot currently in my back/under arm that is beyond a twitch, but more of a scary intense spasm. First time for it...
Our contractor who we just fired installed all of our windows and they look awful. Not only that, but he took 6 weeks to put them in and charged us $21,000 in labor for them. When I asked him about the windows he said they included touch-up paint.
​
We have since contacted the manufacturer and they asked for photos to look into replacing them under warranty.
​
That's great, except we have to pay someone else to remove and re-install.
​
We are just devastated over all of this because they are custom and took 6 weeks to get to begin with. The contractor also put a lift on our new (last summer) stamped concrete patio and cracked it from one end to the other). The list goes on and on.
​
We can't even finish our remodel (trim siding porch) without the windows finished. He sent us his last invoice and I told him that using his insurance may be beneficial because we are not paying him anything and are deducting the costs to install windows and fix our patio.
​
These are just a few of the 21 windows that all look like this.

I've been all over twitching for 7 weeks. For the last 3 weeks I've had this weird sensation in my leg that I'm not walking normal. My massage therapist said the arch in that foot is super tight since my last massage 2 weeks ago.
​
It's almost like I'm flexing my toes upwards when I walk and kind of swinging my foot or a sensation I'm not bending my knee and keeping my leg straight when stepping over things etc.
​
I'm spiraling into things now.
Ever since I got the Oura 5 2 weeks ago mine is 93 to 95. With my 3 and 4 it used to be 97 to 99 so I'm not sure I believe the accuracy. I have an oximeter and it says 98.
Posting again because I'm losing my mind..
This started as twitching in my eye and moved all over about 5 weeks ago. A few weeks ago my knee gave out twice and I thought it was strange. For the past week or 10 days it has felt strange to walk. I can't describe where it's coming from... my knee my foot my hip, I'm not sure, it just feels off like I am not walking right.
Here I am now paranoid and scared that this is something horrible. I have an EMG July 29, but until then I'm going crazy.

About 6 to 8 weeks ago I was putting my little guy into his carseat and the wind slammed the car door with my knee in. I had initial pain but seemed fine after. The last few weeks my knee keeps giving out and my leg feels weird when I walk.
What could have happened as far as an injury or do you think they wouldn't be related?
Does anyone else deal with BFS or all over muscle twitching with pots? I've been having constant twitching for 5 weeks and am currently seeing my neuro, but wondering if anyone else has similar issues.
I have pots and also all over body twitching. I'm wondering if there's a connection...I do know it can be a symptom, but I've never had the twitching until last month.
