Are you ready to unravel the intricate interplay between the heart, brain, and our autonomic nervous system? Ever wondered why we get light-headed when we stand up too quickly? This episode of our podcast takes a deep look at the postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, or POTS, that affects between 500,000 and 3 million Americans, primarily women aged 15-50. Prepare to delve into matter intertwined with gravity, cardiovascular system, and how your body responds to these changes. 

We'll paint a picture of the multitude of potential causes ranging from genetic factors, hormone imbalances, to autoimmune diseases, and even poisoning from alcohol or chemotherapy. We'll guide you through the varied treatment options and how they can differ from one POTS patient to another. This episode is one part medical breakdown, one part human story, as we explore this complex syndrome and the various ways it can manifest. Join us on this journey into the depths of POTS and arm yourself with the knowledge about this syndrome, its implications, and management.
