can anyone tell me what these tests are for?

Hi all!

So just recently I had my TTT and was diagnosed with mild POTS with moderate autonomic dysfunction...the dr has ordered several more tests; alpha adrenergic, beta adrenergic and intrinsic testing.....I have no idea what these are for or how they are done....has anyone ever had these tests??

Thanks

Bren

So glad you finally got a diagnosis, but am sorry for the trouble you are having.  I am so sorry but I don't know what those tests are.  I do not remember having them.  They did so many tests and never had a clue to what half of them were.  I hope you are feeling okay today.
