MD Hi. I m and 11 year old girl and I get dizzy spells a lot. When I m sitting down or standing up it will feel like I m about to pass out. I get them about 2 or 3 times every two days. Is this normal? And I not what might I have? Do I need to go to a doctor?
MD A couple of years ago I was diagnosed with orthostatic hypotension and have been taking generic Florief (Fludrocort 0.1 mg) since. More recently I have had to adjust my dosage to 1/2 every other night since my BP has sometimes been high. Last Friday morning s readings were good: sitting 121/68-70, standing 101/65-75. I took 1/2 pill at bedtime. I did not check on Saturday but Sunday am readings were 144/79-65 sitting & 121/71-71 standing. Today am: 103/63-69 sitting, 80/50-75 standing and at 5:40 pm 120/62-70 sitting. I am puzzled by why my BP readings are so erractic, sometimes HIGH and sometimes LOW. I get headaches & am dizzy when it is high and yet I am very dizzy when it is low. Any suggestions on how to keep it consistent?
MD Hi, i have a problem of every time i stand up, even if it is not too fast i get a bit dizzy and everything gets dark. Usually when I have a bit of low blood pressure this happens but only if i get up quickly. What seems to be happening here is even if i take my time getting up I get dizzy and blank and have to hold on to something before it passes, which usually takes around ten seconds. What is the problem it is worrying me? Thanks, Jenny.

Today my bp was high again this a.m., but is now averaging 90/60 or less, is this a sign of something serious going on, and should I get back to the hospital? I am a calm person, I d just rather be safe than sorry.
MD In the last few weeks, I have started having like a hot flash in my neck and checks; almost like I m blushing. I suffer with lack of energy, depression and anxiety (grieving loss of spouse of 30 years and mother) but this is a new situation. Currently being treated for high blood pressure with HCTZ in the morning and Norvasc at night. I take vitamin D (5,000 IU) daily along with CoQ10 and Xanax PRN. I m 64 and thought I had gone through menopause already. Could this be the anxiety/depression and if so, what supplement could I take to help. I have no insurance so medical testing is not an option at this time.
