🫀 POTS treatment is often debated—but what do patients actually experience? This qualitative study found: 💊 Off-label medications are often life-changing for patients with POTS ⚡ Major improvements in function, energy & daily living ⚠️ Ongoing barriers: cost, side effects & limited long-term data 🤝 Strong need for patient-centered, shared decision-making Beyond heart rate control, true treatment success is measured in lived experience ⬇️ cjcopen.ca/article/S2589-790… #CJCO #OpenAccess

🧵 1/10 We are excited to share our preprint examining pre-pandemic POTS and Long COVID, using deep analysis of the insoluble microclot fraction of blood. Our study shows that the key pathology lies not in protein levels, but in post-translational modifications (PTMs) hidden within fibrinaloid microclot complexes (FMCs). With @Renata_MBooyens, Satish Raj, @dbkell and others. Funded by @POTSActivist biorxiv.org/content/10.64898…
