In this episode, I start off with a brief explanation of what POTS is and its symptoms. This is the beginning of understanding the unknown, which is POTS. I myself when I was diagnosed, I was so confused and lost when I first heard this. Before I can get into my journey and what I have been going through, a clear definition needs to be introduced. I hope this helped, and I look forward to sharing my journey with you all.
