Nobody has responded after 2 weeks. I guess people just want to bitch about it and not fix it. However I will continue to post in case somebody is interested. I have backed off of the potassium and magnesium supplements a bit. They have reduced my episodes to just near syncope. I did post the wrong dosages though. It should be about 40 meq of potassium and 800 mg of magnesium. I have stopped taking my anti-depressants and feel much better getting off of them except for an occasional headache. I honestly believe that all of us have a bit of anxiety from this disorder so I have continued to take zoloft. I have not had an episode for 2 weeks. I did go and take my tilt table test. I failed it even on the supplements. I was fine until they injected me with the adrenaline. And the test was not that bad. Pretty easy and painfree. Why does zoloft help this condition? I will look into this too.

I would like to know the causes so as not to allow a time to trigger these attacks if I can be in control of that environment and if an environment can be controllong. MY doctor and I are finding that if I take JUST 5MG OF LEXAPRO, THSES START HAPPENNG, ALTHOUGH I HAVE EXPERIENCED THEM FOR NO INDUCED REASONONG.
