Maia Stock was 14 when she developed POTS. She went from having a life full of activities to being bedridden all day, every day. Since then she has participated in a number of clinical trials which has helped advance both the understanding of POTS and the quality of care for patients with POTS. Maia reflects that "it definitely improved my quality of life quite a bit because I was stuck in bed, and now I can actually have a life."
