SHE HAS IN 1 VISIT PUT HER ON BLOOLD PRESSURE PILLS. WE HAVE BEEN TAKING HER PRESSURE 3X A DAY AND IT S VERY LOW IN THE AM AND GOES UP A LITTLE AS THE DAY GOES ON. DO YOU THINK PLAXIX WILL HELP HER MINI STOKES?
Yes Plavix helps in preventing stroke. While treating high blood pressure is important if the measurements are consistently very low you could discuss lowering the dosages with your doctors cause if very low could cause problems too. Also I wonder if the possibility of those episodes being seizures has been considered, cause from your description I would consider that possibility as well.
