The time it takes to receive a proper diagnosis of POTS varies. For some, it took three years, while for others it took five years or even longer. The diagnosis was often made by a cardiologist or an electrophysiologist, based on symptoms and sometimes additional tests like a holter monitor or a tilt table test. In some cases, an internal medicine doctor made the diagnosis.
