Official Title: Modafinil and Cognitive Function in Postural Tachycardia Syndrome
Brief Summary:
A common complaint among patients with Postural Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) is "brain fog" or difficulty concentrating. This problem is poorly understood.
The purpose of this study is to better understand the cognitive dysfunction associated POTS, and to determine optimal treatment strategies for this condition.
