Members rallied around someone experiencing dangerous dizziness, falling, and low blood pressure, sharing their own similar experiences and offering practical advice. Several members recommended keeping a detailed blood pressure log, taking multiple readings daily, monitoring oxygen levels with an oximeter, and being proactive by bringing records to doctor appointments to push for answers. A recurring theme was the importance of self-advocacy, as the original poster eventually visited their cardiologist, was placed on a heart monitor, and was later hospitalized where anemia, acute kidney injury, and blood pressure drops when standing were identified.

Thank you all for replying. I just had that dizziness again and I took my blood pressure, it was 93/44. I know that is low. It went to my doc.
