Hyperadrenegic POTS by Dr Saperstein - #shorts

Hyperadrenergic POTS is characterized by excessively high plasma norepinephrine levels and a significant increase in systolic blood pressure upon standing, indicating heightened activity of the sympathetic nervous system. Dr. David Saperstein explains that this form of POTS can be more challenging to manage, often requiring specialized medication. Patients with POTS are frequently misdiagnosed with anxiety disorders despite their symptoms being genuine and debilitating. Dr. Saperstein emphasizes the importance of a thorough review of medical history and patient symptoms to ensure accurate diagnosis and treatment, offering support through specialized care at his center in Phoenix, Arizona.
