Default A question for any helicopter pilots here

Here's perhaps a strange question;

Do helicopters have lower IFR minimums than fixed-wing aircraft?

It seems like IFR would be a cinch in a chopper because if you got
confused or the flying got difficult one could just slow down, stop,
hover, think about it and then continue once the pilot was
"comfortable" again.

You can also back up the ILS approach and start over, so can blimps with a
decent head wind!
