Where to go...

I've been in and out of the hopsital, doctors office, and neurology centers. I've been tested for eveything under the sun and nobody can diagnos me because nothing is related so they can't find the relevance. I also went to counseling for the anxiety like attacks and that wasn't it. So after doing A LOT of research I finally found Dysautonomia and so many of the symptoms are spot on. I truely believe this may be what I have but it seems like everybody stories are the same... nobody knows enough about it to ever diagnos them. So what type of doctor should I be going to?

Diagnosis can be difficult depending on the symptoms.  A Cardiologist or Neurologist should be able to give you a Tilt Table Test, which is often helpful in diagnosing Autonomic Dysfunction.  I hope you are able to find a diagnosis, and treatment soon.  Good luck.

A neurologist or cardiologist would most likely treat POTS symtpoms.  Although, not many doctors in general know about POTS or dysautonomia. I found a Neuro that specilizes in POTS and NCS through dinet.org. On there is a list of physician by state....here's the link (not sure if links or urls can be posted).  If not, try googling "POTS physicians"
