> Andrew, you mentioned hypotension as being a catalyst, excuse my medical ignorance, is that high or low bp? The reason, I used to be chronically low, doctors often either worried (when I was young) or congratulated me as I got older. Then after a couple years of drug abuse (I'm, historically, a speed freak, but have been clean for a while now....)my bp went through the roof (no surprise...). But,although speed free, its still way up there.....Maybe there is a correlation....?
> ANyway, I'm not really looking for you guys to play dr., I will bring this all up with him,I'm really just looking for shoulders to lament on, and I thank you guys for being there...Julia,
Hypotension = low blood pressure
hypertension = high blood pressureFloaters can be brought on by low blood pressure in the head such as can happen when a person stands up.
Keep us posted on how the naltrexone is working for you.
Best wishes.
