I was diagnosed with dysautonomia a few weeks ago....POTS to be more specific. Recently it seems that my joints seem to lock up a lot on my fingers. I have had it happen to my toes periodically and it is very painful during the time they are locked. After some crying, they tend to release on their own. I decided to take a video of my fingers on one occasion, to have a record of what happens when they lock up. It doesn't happen to all of them, but when it happens, they hurt. Sometimes I have to pop them out, and sometimes they release on their own.
Is this POTS related or something else? I'd appreciate any information.
In doing some research I read about something called Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, and I will speak to my doctor when I see her in a few days. These episodes are just very annoying, and often painful, also.
