Andrew, it was suggested to John to dissolve half a chicken broth cube in water and drink it once or twice a day if his blood pressure got too low. It worked for a while but over the long term, it wasn't that helpful. My biggest fear was John falling when his blood pressure got too low. With all the chemo and radiation, it would be very hard for any broken bones to heal. Unfortunately, it did happen and it brought back the pneumonia.

You're right, he was on Florinef.
