Hi Lisazilla!!
I missed you soooo much Im sorry you were suffering with the shock reactions... I was worried you were fighting it. Im so happy though that your DR got smart and cancelled that next exam with contrast.. I was not happy about that--I want you safe!  I hope your computer is better and that you have the option of replacing it soon if you want. Im just glad we have you back again and you are ok
love you muches

Hey Mike, without a doubt, it´s SUPER low!!!   That feeling of exhausting and sleepiness is HORRENDOUS and it really can be almost impossible to fight off.  For me, if I lie down at a moment when I´m feeling like that I will immediately slip into syncope!!!   The ONLY thing I´ve found which helps is to hit hard with the antihistamines, but I have a feeling that if I had an epi-pen at this time, that this would turn it right around!    Yet, without a doctor who knew what he was seeing and who could tell you what was going on right then, it´s hard to know if the Epi would do you good or do you harm and so I´d hesitate.   But I have a couple of times taken my pressure at this time and sure enough, it´s on the low side!


Mike and Mona, thanks for the warm hugs!!   I´ve missed being here for I know that I´m amongst FRIENDS and people who FULLY understand what I go through!   So, thanks again my friends!!  It´s good to be back!!

Lisa,

  I posted a "welcome back" the other day, but it didn't post!  You'd been on my mind, and I was hoping it was just busy-ness and not a flare causing you to be gone.  So glad you're feeling better!  

  I think my computer is on it's last leg and needs to be replaced, too.
