Stoj, John's bloodpressure has been very low for most of the last 17 months- in fact there have been times when I almost called 911. He has been cautioned over and over to stay WELL hydrated! On bad days, Gatoraid helped get him balanced on electrolytes.[and to try to keep nutrition at adequate levels]Also, the low blood pressure caused him to be dizzy and he fell alot upon standing until he learned to sit up-then count to 15 before standing. He is still having trouble with the dizzy spells on occasion, but does not fall any more. You really need to take good care of yourself during this. Every thing you can get into your system helps. Amy
