My Son, 13yrs Old, Finds That On Standing His Lower

My son, 13yrs old, finds that on standing his lower legs turn red and petechia appear all within a few minutes. It causes some discomfort. His heart rate at rest is 54 and rises to 97 in 2 mins and up to 112 by 5mins by which time discomfort is too much to handle and he has to sit down or move vigorously. Is this possibly POTS?
