My joints have gotten much worse this week, right now I have both wrists, both knees, and both ankles wrapped up, if I don't they hurt, and crack all the time, and I feel very unsteady like my joints are going to give out on me. I feel like an old lady, but I really can't complain, I know there are girls with joints problems out there worse than me.
Anxiety has been kicking my butt too, but I don't think its the kind caused by Dysautonomia, I think its just cabin fever related you know?
I can only remember 2 questions... does my heart rate go all over the place? With meds and physical therapy I'm doing pretty well. The highest we have ever caught me was 133. I get uncomfortable when my heart rate is even 100 when I'm resting, and I know most of you girls with POTS get heart rates way over 133. I can't imagine what getting heart rates of 160 or 180 or something must feel like!
What is your favorite Bible verse to read when you don't feel well
Isaiah 58:11.
You may have already answered this at some point before, but what kind of physical therapy do you do that helps control your heart rate? I go to physical therapy for my pelvic and bladder issues....I never even thought about it for heart stuff, but that makes complete sense.
