I have been told a way to treat POTS at home: 2-3L of water a day, 3-8g of salt a day, and at least 100g of protein a day. I was told that once you have established the above in your routine and your symptoms start to improve; get up get moving...walk don't run of course and start slow. Just take it to your threshold and rest. Don't push yourself; you'll most likely improve over time and unfortunately there is no quick fix. Sometimes we just have to do it ourselves as doctors are not sympathetic to this condition. Keep your head up; you can get better. If you can find a POTS specialist in your area that would be ideal.

With the difficult breathers with POTS; have you been checked for MALS or celiac artery stenosis? It can feel like you just can't take a full breath.
