Hi Everybody
I'm OUT OF THE HOSPITAL!!! YAY!! Went for my nerve block procedure and
as I was reminding them that my blood pressure usually went really low
as i came out of sedation,they checked it and it was 70/40...so I had
a glass of water,walked for a little bit and they checked it again
67/38.glass of orange juice and another walk,70/38 heart beat started
out about 60bpm but was in the mid 40s when they decided to call 911
and take me directly across the street to the emergency room(which I
told them I could walk)Anyway,long story short,they spent about aan
hour trying to get my heart rate and blood pressure up to no avail.I
got admitted and put on fluids and was holding steady at around 40bpm
and low 70s/low 40s blood pressure.3 days later with really no idea
what caused these drops,I'm home blood pressure is staying around
100/60 really lowb for me but not scary low i guess.My heart rate is
still about 50,still low but again not alarmingly so I guess.Im
suposed to take it easy,drink lots of fluids and get in to my dr to
get my blood pressure meds changed this week. The only thing they can
think of is the anxiety from worrying about the pain clinic procedure
reacted with one of my many other meds and caused the drop.Thanks for
all the well wishers!! I luv my lil dysfunctional dog & musician
family!!! I'l keep you guys posted! PS the hospital cardiac diet
SUCKS!!
