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.

Customer Reviews
Living w POTS
As someone who has POTS, I can totally relate to everything here on this podcast. Thank you for sharing this information and help.
Great info delivered by lovely people
This is great and I especially appreciate the POTS Basics episodes, where Dr. Cathy Pederson, the neurobiology professor and President/founder of Standing Up to POTS always explains things so clearly. And with so much compassion and empathy. These episodes are great for helping my family understand POTS better.
So amazing!
This has been such an incredible tool. I was diagnosed with POTS and had never heard of it. I’ve learned so much, Jill is awesome , I’ve taken away some amazing tips, and look forward to hear others stories who are going through the same.
Thanks so much for talking about pots and making it a bit easier with those of struggling with it.
