  • Summary

  • Learn about Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) and more by joining us each week for a new episode. If you are living with POTS, MCAS or other chronic illnesses, you are not alone! Our goal is to raise awareness, nurture community, and empower patients with information and practical skills for living better with this chronic invisible illness. Each month, we feature episodes with top POTS physicians as well as POTS patients. Because many POTS patients are eventually diagnosed with MCAS, the first Tuesday of every month we feature a new series called Mast Cell Matters, in which top MCAS practitioners share their experiences in better treating patients. You can learn more by listening to our groundbreaking POTScast anywhere, anytime. Visit our website at www.standinguptopots.org and follow our social media accounts @standinguptopots.

  • Four nutrition findings with Jill Brook, MA

    Four nutrition findings with Jill Brook, MA
    Mar 25 2025

    Jill shares four nutrition findings from general nutrition (not done on POTS patients) that might still be of interest to POTS patients, as they have been shown to affect cognitive function, mood, pain and exercise tolerance. As always, this is not medical or dietary advice. Check with your own medical team about what is right for you.

    Lily’s transition to career and adulting
    Mar 15 2025

    Lily was our first POTS Diaries guest (Episode #2) as a college student with severe POTS. She's back to discuss how she navigated planning a POTS-friendly career, the job hunt, cross-country move, 2 hurricanes, and maintaining her relationship with her partner -- all while managing fairly severe POTS and related conditions. Lily's smart strategies, insights and sense of humor make this episode extra valuable and fun.
