Hooray, Flip Flop by the FDA!

According to The New York Times, the FDA has reconsidered its decision to remove midodrine (ProAmatine) from the market due to the many complaints received by POTS patients like us that find it necessary for everyday living. The FDA has backtracked from it's original decision, and will now allow midodrine to continue to be sold.(YAY!) Finally, the chronically ill are listened to by a government agency…that must be some kind of record! Good news all around.
