> I was in the hospital when I started parnate, so my BP was being monitored and I definitely had postural hypotension - pretty dramatic actually. For the first several months, I regularly felt dizzy upon standing and needed to hold on to something for a couple of minutes until it passed. Then that stopped. However, this summer I had surgery and a visiting nurse took my BP sitting, then standing. When she took it standing, she said, do you know your BP drops when you stand up. I replied that it was because of parnate, but that it didn't really seem to drop much anymore. She said - actually it's 80/50.

Yes, my blood pressure is around that when I stand. I also feel dizzy.
So, how is the treatment going? Thank you for the reply :)
