Sorry I am not here very often. I find the computer a bit difficult with the neck.

 

GP did a 24hr blood pressure monitor because the eye specialist said Bp under 110 could be causing my 'normal tension glucoma'. My bp range is 112/? to 74/? Dr said it was the lowest he had seen. He want me to got to a chronic fatigue clinic and work with a psychologist and exercise psychologist. The only trouble is getting there. If I am ment to be there then by God's grace there will be a way but for the life of me I don't know how!!!

 

See a nurologist who will be checking for dyautonomeia (central nervour system dysfunction) in November.

 

Getting frastrated with the drs. They keep disagreeing with each other and I am in the middle. Then they disagree with me Frown My psycharistis said its because  of the complex nature of the case, its not me. That may me feel a bit better but does not change the situation.

 

Love and prayers to all Kiss

    Hi Margaret
    A very good morning to you . Incidently my BP has been 110/68 all my life and all I have to be careful about is to eat every 3-4 hours as I can get light-headed very easily ! I am sorry you are having such a tussle with your drs , if they are not on your side life can get very frustrating ! I know how you feel ! I have been there recently . Stay srong and make demands . you will be listened to !!
    Loads of love and hugs ..............Monica
