Parasitescan transmit diseases, such as Chagas, that can cause POTS symptoms. Some patients report developing POTS after having Lyme disease. Porphyriashave been associated with POTS symptoms (Stewart & Hensley, 1981). Porphyrias are rare, mainly genetic disorders that affect the body's ability to make hemoglobin. They are caused by deficiencies in enzymes involved in the synthesis of heme.
As was alluded to before, POTS is a group of different disorders associated with similar clinical manifestations. POTS is classified as being either primary or secondary. The primary forms are idiopathic and not associated with other diseases. The secondary forms occur in association with a known disease or disorder.
