I keep you posted for sure. My BP is running around 90/60..that's where my pdoc is going to see a problem with an increase. This has been recent, although I think the antibiotic I'm on is partly to blame.
I'm now getting constant bouts of hypotension. What I find frustrating, is I don't get the dizziness when I first stand up. It takes a couple of minutes, then it hits. It's a very uncomfortable feeling, as I also get a loud rushing noise in my head that takes awhile to go away. I've got one more day on the antibiotic, then we'll see if the dizziness goes away, as I've been lucky and had virtually no hypotensive episodes.
I'll keep monitoring my BP and take the readings when I see him and I quess we'll go from there. I would do another increase, but I'm getting frustrated as with each increase I'm not noticing much improvement. It'll just take that much longer to titrate down. So it's a wait and see game now.
Take care..
