This is a continuation of a long topic, addressed by post number rather than by page. Start at post 1 · go to the accepted answer.

Having read the whole Dizziness on standing thread before replying: the question in the first post has not actually been answered yet, and three of us have answered a nearby one instead.
Worth separating two things that post #90 runs together.
Dizziness on standing has been discussed here with more heat than it deserves, mostly because two definitions have been in play the whole time.
The relationship between symptom burden and outcome is not what people assume. Feeling worse is not evidence of a larger effect and feeling nothing is not evidence of an inactive preparation.
I have deliberately not rounded that, because the rounding is where the argument starts.
