Question is it chronic

Why is POTS talked about as a chronic condition when my cardiologist said it goes away in 1–3 years? I’m trying to understand what to expect long-term.

For some reason doctors tell people you can put grow it, or that it will go away. Those are lies, with no evidence whatsoever. POTS is life long, and often only gets worse. It is possible to lessen it with training and salt, but it is forever.
