POTS: I had dizziness every time I stood up today and my heart rate jumped fast - I wanted an aggressively salty meal today, and prosciutto plus ricotta on toast made that easy.

Vestibular migraine: I had no vestibular migraine symptoms today - no vertigo, no nausea, and no light sensitivity.

Lupus: I had no rash, no body aches, no fever, and no nausea from my anti-rejection meds today.
