I say you pay attention to how you feel and write your thoughts down on paper. I think its low pressure if you feel light headed a lot probably why, always have a chair close by. Its good to talk to nurse about bp they know more to help you better ask questions about low bp to your nurse before you see your Doctor its good therapy all around, I hope you like your Doctor. I loved my Cardiologist he was so nice. We do a drug talk every time and I would open up and talk about rejection of the heart and the pitfalls in it, getting off steroids I started asking questions on getting off prednisone, and I was on it 7 years, I got off it no rejection of the heart. God is good I say you write it down make a log of how you feel and what is going on in your sweet head.

I was on that waiting for my heart but I sure had dizzy spells spells Coreg I took Coreg they are bad drugs. I just accepted what is good. I always knew when to get to the chair slowing down finding respite

My primary doctor's physician assistant put me on Carafate for my stomach and Meclizine Hydrochloride 25mg (Antivert) for my dizziness and light headedness. I've only taken these meds twice during the past week. I am feeling better than I was. My dizziness and light headedness seem to be related to my low blood pressure. I have also taken some Tums to help my stomach and they seem to settle my stomach just as well. I will be discussing my blood pressure and the meds. I take for my blood pressure when I see my Cardiologist next Tuesday. I also want to ask about my test results from the latest echocardiogram I had taken in May. I'm definitely showing some improvement from the echo I had done over a year ago.
