COVID with POTS?
Took a COVID antigen test and it came back positive. I left a message and sent a portal note to my cardiologist since I’m already being treated for POTS, and now throwing COVID into the mix with my high heart rate and low BP, I really don’t know what to expect.
Has anyone else had COVID after being diagnosed with POTS? The last time I had COVID was back in 2022, and funnily enough, getting over that is what led to me being referred to a cardiologist and eventually diagnosed with POTS.
My PCP doesn’t open until tomorrow, so I guess my options are to wait to hear back from them or my cardiologist, or somehow find a ride to the ER (since I can’t drive right now because of the dizziness and fainting). Not super thrilled about sitting there for hours explaining POTS for the hundredth time, only to end up with a huge bill later.
