4 week check up

I went for my 4th week check up..im actually at 25 days. I weigh 284.9 sw was 316. Today was awful. Ive been getting really dizzy when i stand up. So i asked my dr. If i should stop taking my bp meds. He said no and sent me for labs.....I PASSED OUT. Full blown unconscious. My hands/ fingers contracted and i couldn't use them for 15_20 min. They gave me oj and told me my bp was 90/60 very low for me..so once i was better my dr told me to stop taking the bp meds all together. Me hubby came and took me to the ER. I had compcompletely normal labs but my bp was 100/60.

My point is LISTEN TO YOUR BODIES. When YOU feel changes speak up.

Sorry to hear about your experience and it's so true we often know our bodies better than drs. I've had similar experiences over the years. On the upside congrats on getting if the blood pressure pills!!?
