Shelby_725, I'm so sorry that I'm only now replying to your post - I just read it a moment ago. Thanks so much for sharing your experience with me. My son, who just recently turned 18, was diagnosed with POTS at Mayo in Florida this past November. He has been sick for 5 years and had to withdraw from school at that time to be homeschooled. Since March 2014, he's been much worse, having daily symptoms. He's basically homebound and has lost contact with all friends,etc. He's taken it in stride for the most part but is starting to feel as though he has no future. It sounds like you've been through years of suffering - I'm happy that you are feeling so much better! Your story gives me hope for David's future. I'm on the fence about the clinic. I called Dr. K and spoke to her at length,but I still have a couple of questions if you don't mind. How much of the program was spent in "therapy" and how much was spent on relaxation/meditation exercises? Did she prescribe you lots of supplements and vitamins - if so, do you think they were very expensive? Was nutrition a part of the program (my son is about 50 lbs underweight)? In your opinion, do you think biofeedback can be learned at home, provided you have the equipment? I've read that you can buy the Heartmath equipment on Amazon that they send you home with. I realize this is a lot to ask and can't thank you enough for your insight!
