If you took the Ditropan for bladder spasms and
it brought your BP down ... and if THIS WORKS
REGULARLY by *trying it* -- bladder spasms are
the culprit causing the AD ... dontcha think?
 
I have to do this "process of elimination" type thing
when I'm stumped with what my body is doing.

I have been reading with interest the posts on AD.
 
I have a unique situation.  I am 39 years post SCI, C5-6.  The
other is that I had an alcohol block in the lower spine killing the
remaining nerves in the spine.  This was done as I was so spastic
my legs were drawn up to my stomach.
 
I get what I believe is AD, but mine is a little different.  I have many of
the
classic symptoms, blotchy skin, clammy, sweaty, etc., but the
concern is the blood pressure.
 
In example, my BP last night while still in my chair was 180/95, after
being in be for a short time was (5-10 minutes) my BP was 90/60.  It
does not constitently stay high or low. As I write this I have been in
bed 6 hours and high BP, took Ditropan 5 Mg, and the BP goes
down for a while.
 
Anybody else have this.
