Oh this is brilliant, the shirt bit. My jaw spasms/locks, so this would be super helpful.

Thanks

Hi, thank you! Midwest United States here. I've been to a leading regional medical center and its ENT, and during my first visit he did a laryngoscopy, and noted no irregularities, so I don't know. I ran the gamut with his suggestions, and have now been referred to pulmonology. Lidocaine nebulizer prescribed has been giving zero improvement. Waiting to schedule a CT scan and see if that gives any clues. I will definitely keep RRP in mind and bring it up next time I talk with the doctor.

Huh, I haven't really been paying attention to seizures on a bad POTS day, when i have my next bad day I'll record my observations!

Hi! I have AuDHD, tics, Schizoaffective Disorder, bipolar type, and a lot of chronic pain problems. My life is exhausting to say the least. One thing I would recommend is researching the spoon theory and using that to track your energy and try to give yourself lots of rest. Another thing I do is make a list of the activities that are restful to me, like playing music or painting or writing, or even just laying on the floor listening to music, only put things that take very little energy to do. You can use those things to recuperate and rest, while still feeling productive or at least tricking your brain into thinking you're being productive, because I know it can be really hard to let yourself rest.

Thank you so much for the advice!! Next time aI'm about to faint I'll try that!

I have extremely bad asthma. I can only fun for like 5 seconds on a bad day. But on a good day I can run for under a minute but on a really good day I can run for a minute. 1 minute is like my limit for how much my body will run

Thanks my athsma isn't that bad as run at least once a week hir over an hour but Thanks anyway

thanks for the advice

I have mild asthma but I wheeze a lot also get tight chest sometime

I'm sorry you have to deal with this! I dealt with this a lot when I was at school so I understand how difficult and isolating it can be. Unfortunately the only advice I can give is to ping your teachers an email explaining that you have tics to spread some awareness around it. I had some nice teachers that would look out for me so if someone was clearly bothering me, they would get the classes attention or say something unrelated to make it stop. But yeah just let your teachers know and go into as much detail as you feel comfortable :)
