Show Notes

Dr. Reddy is a COVID long-hauler herself. She developed POTS, and symptoms worsened each time she caught COVID. She struggled for a diagnosis, and now is a champion in the clinic and in advocacy for people who develop POTS after COVID infection or vaccine injury. She walks through the theory of how this occurs and a range of treatment options that might help with equal parts compassion and conviction.
