im finding more and more people with lyme and co. have syncope or pots or both. it may be good to document this especially if you are seeking disability.
if you feel dizzy, faint or feel like your heart is racing when you stand you may have one or both of these conditions. a tilt table test can tell you.
anyway, check out this website and chat room if you want info or to talk to others to compare symptoms

Dear blackcat, Thank you for posting this! I seem to have problems with standing up too quickly. I can just stretch and feel faint sometimes! It is scary! Eating a thimble of salt helps.
