Hello Mightys, first I want to thank everyone for the suggestions and support I got on my post!
Secondly for some reason my previous attempt at a post didn’t go through so now I have to retype everything.
The past few showers and days have all been the same exhausting and irritating experience;
Nausea, Dizziness, Faintness, Shaking, Tremors, Winded, Fast Heartbeat, and Exhaustion.
I have to repeatedly sit down every minute while attempting to shower which is very unpleasant as there is nowhere to sit and I end up sitting on the shower floor and it’s very uncomfortable.
Those who suggested a shower stool, I am looking into it and can see how helpful it would be; it would make me not dread showering and make the task overall easier for my chronically ill body.
I did finally reach out to a doctor and got back from them, I will see them soon.
I didn’t mention or suggest PoTS though I know it was mentioned previously, I’m just too shy to be that direct, but I will be seen and likely go through a test that should make it see if anything indicates that.
I will keep all you informed and share how things go. 🦋
