Well, I can tell the difference between my anxiety and panic disorder as opposed to the other symptoms. I've never been diagnosed with POTS but I have for years had the symptoms of it. By getting dizzy from standing up to passing out at random times with no apparent reason for it. Even vomiting while passed out. Plus other symptoms of it that I've been noticing since I've heard of pots. But I'll be seeing my doctor Tuesday and bringing this stuff up. Hopefully she listens and doesn't dismiss like many other doctors do to women 🙄
