Is it worth going back to the doctor?

Back in May I suddenly got super dizzy and sick after getting up from my lunch break and ended up leaving work early. I went to urgent care where they did a EKG and took my blood pressure while sitting and standing and found nothing abnormal and said it could be POTS and then I went to my PCP for a follow up where they used the one test that sits you up and turns your head really fast. It came back negative but even the doctor said it was a pretty unreliable test. Got another EKG done and some blood work. Went back to my PCP and was diagnosed with Vasovagal Syncope. All the symptoms match my one major attack and by the time I saw my PCP the second time my symptoms pretty much vanished. Well recently they’ve come back and I’m a bit hesitant to say it’s just Vasovagal Syncope mainly because my BP and Pulse go up instead of down when I sit or stand up. Is this worth going back to the doctor for and bringing up the suggestion of POTS? My symptoms tend to come and go but when they come they can get pretty bad before I’m fine or they’re super super mild for a little while.
