Hypovolemia Thursday

Yesterday I started feeling really awful after having my blood drawn, and last night I got horribly sick. I'm not sure if it was hypovolemic shock (possible because I'm so thin and have POTS) or if it was just a really bad POTS attack. Either way, I was sicker than I've been in well over a year.

I cancelled my test for gastroparesis because I just feel too awful.

I'm spending the day doing almost nothing.
