yes,i have blood pressure 90/60. the blacking out is autonomic,mine due to long
term bed rest.getting up causes this as well,maybe try slowly-slowly approach.
i actually enjoy the feeling of euphoria during these short but dangerous
episodes as i go into a dream state often disappointed to be brought around
'cause then,it's back to having to put up with my neuro pain as usual. recline
is best,also,alert people you are with not to panic,just by simply raising one
of your legs,or both,will get the blood pumping again,maybe you just needed to
release some gases. experienced blacker-outerer. rob.

I know that when I have sleep deprivation I'll blank out and have to put my
chair back; my blood pressure is sometimes as low as 80/38. I want to know if
I need a certain vitamin or mineral or what can I do to avoid this problem.?
This is Mike I'm a quad C-5inc, 46 yrs old. Any feedback would be
appreciated.
If your blanking out, you should see your Dr. Sometimes my pain pills
effect me like that in the morning. My doc said it was normal for quads to have
low blood pressure but not blanking out!
