Triggers
Symptoms of OI are triggered by the following:
- An upright posture for long periods of time (e.g. standing in line, standing in a shower, or even sitting at a desk).
- A warm environment (such as in hot summer weather, a hot crowded room, a hot shower or bath, after exercise).
- Emotionally stressful events (seeing blood or gory scenes, being scared or anxious).
- Inadequate fluid and salt intake.
