"POTS is characterized by the body's inability to make the necessary adjustments to counteract gravity when standing up. The defining symptom of POTS is an excessive heart rate increment upon standing. However a multitude of other symptoms often accompany this syndrome. As such, POTS can be a difficult disorder to detect and understand." http://www.dinet.org
