October is Dysautonomia Awareness Month. Dysautonomia, also called autonomic dysfunction, is a group of disorders that affect the autonomic nervous system.⁠ ⁠ Many people with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) or hypermobility spectrum disorder (HSD) also have a type of dysautonomia. There are different types of dysautonomia with different symptoms. ⁠ ⁠ People with EDS and HSD most commonly have a form of orthostatic intolerance. “Orthostasis” means to stand upright, so orthostatic intolerance refers to symptoms that occur due to standing up or being upright.⁠ ⁠ The two most common types of orthostatic intolerance are:⁠ ⁠ 1️⃣ Orthostatic hypotension (OH) — low blood pressure on being upright.⁠ 2️⃣ Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) — an abnormal increase in heart rate when standing without a drop in blood pressure.⁠ ⁠ Symptoms of dysautonomia include: ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ● Tachycardia (fast heart rate)⁠ ⁠ ⁠● Palpitations (feeling the heart racing or pounding)⁠ ● Hypotension (low blood pressure)⁠ ● Lightheadedness ⁠ ● Presyncope (a sense of being about to faint)⁠ ● Syncope (fainting)⁠ ● ⁠Blurred vision⁠ 😶‍🌫️Brain fog (problems with concentration and memory)⁠ ● Headaches⁠ ⁠● Chest pain ⁠ ⁠ ⁠● Shakiness⁠ 💤Chronic fatigue⁠ ⁠● Exercise intolerance and feeling worse after exercise⁠ ⁠ ● Swelling and/or discoloration of the legs after standing for short periods of time⁠ ● Cold, discolored hands and feet⁠ ⁠ ⁠● Temperature dysregulation⁠ ⁠ 🥵Sweating⁠ ● Sleep disturbance⁠ ● Gastrointestinal issues⁠ ● Nausea⁠ 🚽Bladder dysfunction⁠ ⁠ Stay with us throughout October as we talk more about dysautonomia, how it's diagnosed, and management. In the meantime you can learn more about diagnosis and management here: ehlers-danlos.com/dysautonom… #Dysautonomia #DysautonomiaAwarenessMonth #WeGotDys #EhlersDanlosSyndrome #Hypermobility #HypermobilitySyndrome #HypermobilitySpectrumDisorder #ZebraStrong #POTS
