Abstract

Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is a common condition of orthostatic intolerance in response to changes in position. We report a case of a middle-aged woman presenting with a new onset of POTS likely due to chemotherapy for treatment of breast cancer. She was started on a trial of a beta blocker, which was effective in controlling her symptoms and heart rate. The objective of this report was to encourage clinicians to consider POTS as a differential diagnosis, while managing patients with symptoms of orthostatic intolerance.
