Guest guest Posted July 26, 2003 Report Share Posted July 26, 2003 Hi Everyone, Yesterday , I sure gave Deb , the girlfriend I aam staying with in Cleveland, a big scare. I got up to go potty, and promptly blacked out and fell onto the wooden floor, hitting my left wrist and hip. I am ok, a bit bruised and sore today, but ok. Deb called from work to check on me a couple times yesterday as she was worried. I was ok, just feeling pretty dizzy and etc. When she got home, she checked my bp in all positions.. lying.. 102/68, sitting.. 102/68 and standing.. 80/60. We now believe that my blacking out was due to the drop in my bp.. postural hypotension. However, we dont know what is causing my bp to bottom out. I have been rendered to sitting, reading, lying in bed, etc.. and of course, spoiling Ed, her black lab.. and nothing more until I can see the doctor. I will keep you guys posted... and let you know what is going on. Take care Peachy hugs, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
