MCAs and Bp

Is there any link between MCAS and BP ? With those having POTS AND MCAS both , do you think it affects our bp in some ways, my functional doc says GLP is mast cell liberator so she was cautious of increasing my dose , so eversince I have increased my dose suddenly my bp remains constantly high, although I used to be on lower side with POTS ...i dont is it flaring POTS or what

LongCovid and Hyper POTS

I think I have hyper POTS now, my bp never used to be this high, yesterday I had to go with my mother to emergcy as she is heart patient, I was exhausted restless, sleep less and did have any breakfast either , so I went with her ...after hour or two I started feeling dizzy followed by chest pain and arm pain, I asked some doctor there to check my bp too...and it was 180/130 ...I vomitted twice, both doc and I freaked out, anyway he asked me to lie down and he gave me some emergency treatment to stop vomitting and after resting for few mintues my bp dropped to 130 even doctor was amazed...Eversince I am scared as hell, its never been this high ,also should I go for ECG cus of that arm pain ?....

Has anyone recovred from such bp fluctuations ?

Long Covid /POTS and Weight Loss

I am 38y old female. I have been dealing with Long Covid ,which got me POTS for 3 and half years. Ever since I have gained and lost weight , but my weight always come back as I also have PCOS.I became quite stable in 2024 and started proper gym which got me in shape and I gained muscle ,but since mid 2025, I have been dealing with significant flare and I have gained back weight...

Currently I am at 238 pounds. Though I was also obese previously but my muscle wouldn't make me look 200 plus pounds. Now, I have to force myself to eat ,however when I face sugar drops, I eat sugar. I am still watchful of sugar and carbs. My appetite is significantly reduced. I am taking GLP but still my weight isn't budging. Today ,someone said to my face that I am just lazy and make excuses , those who want to do something they achieve it by any means !! He basically called me a loser and frankly I feel like so..I am tired of explaining to people what happens with me on day to day basis from nausea ,extreme exhaustion to not being able to sleep all night. Even my functional doc says I am not serious .I try to exercise on days when I can and try to build my steps.

Please tell me where I am wrong, has anyone been successful losing weight with PCOS and all the inflammation that comes with long covid ? what should I do to lose even 10 pounds ...I am lost, hopeless and feel disgusted seeing myself in the mirror
