10 POTS Symptoms
Symptom #10: Palpitations
The heart beats at a steady pace all day, every day. We don’t usually notice it is even there, though, although we could find our pulse if we really wanted to. We are also likely to notice our heart beat more when it is beating faster and harder, such as after we have exercised.
However, we do not normally notice our heart so much when we are at rest, although this can occur in people with POTS. Patients with the condition can sometimes physically feel their heart “fluttering” as it beats in an abnormal manner. It is not necessarily dangerous but is still something that should be checked out.
