POTS Daily Tracker (HR + Position + Hydration)

POTS is a pattern problem: the trigger, the fluids, the salt, and the symptoms all move together, and no single number tells the story. This is the patient-built daily workflow that captures all of it, then pulls 30 days into one page for your cardiologist. Built for people managing POTS and dysautonomia.

What is in the drawer

A one-page fillable PDF for flare days, brain-fog days, and hospital days. A Notion workspace and a trend tracker for the clearer ones. The PDF is the primary deliverable here, not the bonus.

Print & Editable Files

• One-page fillable PDF: the position-change HR delta using the Sheldon 2015 standing-test method, hydration in litres, sodium in grams, and the daily symptom log
• Canva-editable companion with six printable cards: copy the design into your own Canva account to rebrand or print at home

Digital Workspaces (Notion)

• Duplicate the parent page plus five child databases into your workspace: Standing Test, Hydration and Salt, Symptom, Medication, and the AI Access Checklist
• The symptom log maps onto your trigger pattern, so you see what tends to come before a flare instead of logging severity in a vacuum
• A cardiologist-visit summary that pulls your last 30 days into one printable page
• A Sheets trend tracker that auto-charts your standing-test delta, hydration shortfall, and symptom severity over time

AI Scaffolding

• The AI Access Checklist with 10 tight-default categories pre-seeded, so you decide what an AI can see before you connect anything

Guidance & Support

• Welcome PDF from Wren, written for a low-energy first day
• Step-by-step quickstart so you can watch instead of read
• 30-Day Wren Email Support
• Lifetime Updates

Why this drawer exists

A free search gives you the standing-test idea and a generic symptom app, but neither links your fluids and salt to the days you actually flared. This workflow holds the whole picture in one place, shaped so a hard day still gets captured.

• One page out the door means a flare day or a hospital day needs a pencil and a tick, nothing more
• The standing-test method is built in, so you are not reconstructing the protocol from memory each morning
• Fluids in litres and salt in grams sit beside the symptoms, so the connection is visible instead of guessed
• The symptom log is mapped onto triggers, which a flat severity rating hides
• One auto-built 30-day summary turns a month of data into a page your cardiologist can read fast

What this is not

• Not medical advice. This is a patient-built organizational symptom-tracking workflow tool.
• Not a diagnostic tool and not a treatment. It does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent POTS or any condition.
• Not a substitute for a clinician. Use it alongside your cardiologist, EP, or autonomic specialist.
• Not a wearable or vitals feed. The standing-test entries and fluids are logged by you, by hand.
