    Re: Dizzy When I Stand Up

    My BP and pulse rate have fallen really, really low. I've even been to the cardiologist and had the echo cardiogram. His advice to me was QUOTE: "eat more salt"

    I think with all the water I drink, no processed foods and lots of healthy cardiovascular exercise (running), that I get electrolyte deficient.

    I quit taking CoQ10 because it's heart healthiness is to lower BP. I don't need anything that is going to lower it. The last time I was at the doctor's office it was 58/40-something!!!! My resting pulse can be around 39-46 beats per minute.

      The last time I felt like that, my potassium and blood sodium were both low. My blood pressure was very low because both of those were low. I was put on prescription potassium and was told to eat more salt. I don't like salt, so that is hard for me. I passed out more than once, but the worst time was when I bent over the swimming pool filter to hook up the vacuum hose and woke up when I hit the cold water.

        Sounds like when I am anemic. I would definantly see a doctor being that I am not one. But also look into seeing a natropathic doctor. I saw one and got a blood work up and was able to get suppliments to correct the problem. ( I am terrible at spelling so please forgive me)
