An order screwup, perhaps? Happens to me regularly at Dunkin Donuts since there is only one independent coffee shop in my town, and it’s not near me.

They put cow’s milk in my coffee instead of oat

@iamlindsaythatisall Good idea say allergic anaphylaxis that might help them remember,do you know by chance what a doctor would look for in a diagnosis of POTS in someone autistic :)

I went to a cardiologist to get a POTS diagnosis. They just had me hooked up to an EKG, had me lie down, sit up, then stand up. If your heart rate goes up 30bpm or more, you have POTS. They’ll likely ask you a few questions about how it feels to stand up and if you have digestive issues. I was also diagnosed with EDS, so that’s what causes my POTS.
