It wasn’t my primary care doctor who advised the booster (who I am going 2 talk to about this asap) this was an Internal Medicine Doctor through the Long Covid Recovery Care who just a week ago diagnosed me with POTS, and feels it was most likely brought on by COVID. Yes I had it twice, first time in February of 2021, then again in August of 2022.
For two years of going to several doctors and numerous test, doctors started thinking it was menopausal (I’m 53) with my symptoms. Which are elevated heart rate, heart arrhythmias (PVC, PAC, SVT) muscle/joint aches, lightheadedness, brain fog, digestive issues, and feeling off balance. But this Internal Medicine Doctor performed the table tilt test and diagnosed the POTS.
So I don’t know I definitely want to see what my PCP says before I get a booster.
That’s great that you are finding some things that you can enjoy, hopefully I will too, but it’s really really hard most days.
