That's it really ...BP has been really low .
I have noticed it and feeling it .

Taken BP and it is 90/59 ..86/60 type of thing.

Serious dizzy /wozzyiness when waking up and trying to get out of bed !
(Fall back onto bed if I do it too quick !)

I have upped my water .

What else can I do ...
This is a doctor's job isn't it!

Are you pregnant or diabetic?
Any other symptoms or new medications?

I would check with your doctor if you haven't already. I have chronic low blood pressure and was put on fludrocortisone. I had to come off it and was just told to drink a minimum of 3 litres of water a day and increase salt intake.

Deff not pregnant!
Don't know about diabetes or in fact anything !

Water intake is pathetic ..still only managing 1litre ...but about 3 litres or more in cups of tea !

I do have very very bad varicose veins that are starting to give me aches .
Could they be connected ?
