Glenn, my normal blood pressure right now is around 90/50. I don't know about the rest of you, but my blood pressure tends to drop tremendously after I eat. I take a couple meds before eating to try and combat that from happening. One of them is Midodrine and the other is fludrocortisone. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't. I've been told that if you take too many/combine opiates that can drop your blood pressure and your breathing can shallow out to a dangerous level. Lucinda C-4,5 complete July 31, '05 Mpls., MN

Many of the articles that I read on the Internet suggests that quads have a low blood pressure. What is your experience with blood pressure? Many of the articles suggest that if your blood pressure is slightly above normal, EX: 170/100, it's time to think about calling an ambulance. My doctor has put me on Baclofen. I know that some of you are on this medication, what do you use it for, any side effects, does it do anything with your blood pressure? Does anyone take baclofen and ditropan? Thanks, Glenn Henry
