Weight gain is a common concern for individuals with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS). Several factors contribute to this issue. Medications designed to increase blood volume, such as supercortisone, can lead to fluid retention and increased thirst, resulting in swelling. In cases of neurogenic POTS, where brain function is affected, there can be difficulties in regulating heart rate, endocrine functions, and maintaining weight. This type of POTS can also impact sleep patterns, cortisol and blood sugar rhythms, and even menstrual cycles in women. These systemic effects are more likely to occur in individuals who have experienced brain injuries or whiplash, as multiple bodily systems may be affected simultaneously Office: (734)-707-5105 Email: Info@drkeiser.com #ehlersdanlossyndrome #ehlersdanlos #eds #ehlersdanlosawareness #ehlersdanlossyndromes #ehlersdanlossyndromeawareness #pots #potstreatment #potsawareness #postcovid #posturalorthostatictachycardiasyndrome #potsie #dysautonomia #dysautonomiaawareness #dysautonomiawarrior #dysautonomiatreatment #vestibular #autonomicdysfunction #autonomicnervoussystem #ans #concussion #concussionawareness #concussiontreatment #concussions #postconcussionsyndrome #postconcussion #headinjury #braininjury #braininjuryawareness #braininjuryrehab
