Blood pressure and diaphragm. Any internist that specializes in SCI will tell you that. Depending upon the positioning or your internal organs when sitting and that which is displaced after eating can almost predict your blood pressure dropping.

Hi, I am new at this so I really don't know how this works, so here it goes. I am a 49 yr. old C 3-4 quad. I can not move anything below my shoulders but I am not on a vent. I am going on my 24th year. The past 2 to 2 1/2 years I have been having dizzy spells to where if I don't tilt back in my w/c I will pass completely out. It happens after I eat a meal. I have been to different Dr.'s about this and the only thing they can tell me is that my blood is going into my digestion system. The only problem is it doesn't happen every time I eat. Has anyone ever heard of a problem like this? I also have scoliosis bad. My spine curves bad right in between my shoulders. Could this have anything to do with it? Any reply would be helpful. ____________________________________ Time for vacation?
