You are also extremely tired but not in a way that will be fixed with sleep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:22px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">What causes it?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>They don\u2019t know, not a single doctor has ever been able to answer this one. A lot of them seem to think it\u2019s because of the circulation system working so hard to get the blood where it needs to go. This could be the cause? It does make sense too because of where the blood flows and when it struggles to reach certain parts, such as muscles, it would not allow them to get the proper blood flow.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Personally, I just figured it was because it just took so much more work and effort to move my muscles when I over do it the fatigue is worse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:26px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Solutions I\u2019ve found<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Rest. That\u2019s really the only solution to fatigue I&#8217;ve found. You can preemptively stop it if you don\u2019t overexert yourself. Like all of the other symptoms, working to get your blood pressure up will help a lot.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:27px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Further Reading<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cPOTS: A Little Known Cause of Extreme Fatigue.\u201d <em>Johns Hopkins Medicine<\/em>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hopkinsmedicine.org\/health\/conditions-and-diseases\/pots-a-little-known-cause-of-extreme-fatigue\">https:\/\/www.hopkinsmedicine.org\/health\/conditions-and-diseases\/pots-a-little-known-cause-of-extreme-fatigue<\/a>.
