Linda's daughter has perhaps had POTS all of her life, but the impact of the illness became more apparent in her teen years. Linda describes the impact of POTS from a parent's perspective, and articulates what many POTS parents are often thinking. Hunting for a practitioner who can help. Emergency department visits during flares. Supporting a child with POTS daily. We are so glad that she shared her journey with us here!
