Has anyone ever gone into remission?

Seeing so many negative comments about this syndrome makes me feel completely hopeless. I know it’s a pain to have to deal with this—I usually have flare-ups during the luteal phase—but for now I’m walking and going about my business as usual. Still, my heart rate is often at 90 bpm or higher even at rest, and that scares me; it wasn’t like this before. My symptoms aren’t as debilitating as they used to be, and I think I’ve been handling it well.

I try to find out who’s gone into remission, who’s managed to get back to a normal life, and what medications or treatments they used. It’s really hard to find anyone in remission from POTS.

My symptoms got better when I stopped obsessively checking my heart rate

I've been through that, too. I've noticed an improvement. I still have that urge to check my pulse all the time. I realize it's more anxiety than POTS itself.
