It happens to me mildly every once in a while, I start feeling very week and a little dizzy, mostly when I don't eat at my usual time, I also need to tilt my chair when it happens. There was a time when it happened more often and a doctor told me it was hypoglycemia, are you eating too much sugar? When I had that I was told to exclude all whites from my diet, white rice, potatoes, white bread, etc, everything that turns into sugar, and of course sugar. I followed these indicationd and this issue went away, but lately I've been pretty bad and I've noticed it's happening more.

In this time I have become familiar with low blood pressure. To help I have taken Ephedrine, Modderin and Espresso coffee. The abdominal binder is a major help This past year there has been an increase in episodes of nearly passing out, or whiting out as I describe. Fortunate for me is the tilt on my wheelchair where I have been increasingly spending much of my time. Lately if I begin talking I be come faint. I am worrying that something else is going on but wonder if this is common amongst older quads. _________________________________________________________________ Windows 7: Simplify your PC.
