Hi Greg, my doctor has me take 1mg fludrocortisone for this--he wants me to take one every day but I take them more on days I feel I need them,,,I take one before every bowel routine or I get bad dizzy like you were talking about. Dan H.

I was out front reading on my entrance way on my house. It’s not big, just a nice cubby hole to block the wind and reflect the sun/heat. It was about 75 out today, but I don’t think I was overheating. At first I was just light headed so I reclined a bit. A neighbor stopped by and I tried to sit up. Everything stated going black. My hearing started fading out. I never went out, but it was close. It was bad for about 30 minutes, but was still not back to normal for hours. Once I was OK, I was just tired for awhile. I keep thinking of getting a prescription for low blood pressure medication to use on days like these. I often get slight cases like this after my b-program I know this topic was going awhile back. Anyone suggest a medication to use on bad days, not an every day med? Though my BP is always low, Maybe I should try a daily medication? Thanks, Greg
