Dore's appt
Zaini:
Mine is almost always borderline low :( .
Dore,
Manal is right,low B.P does cause fatigue,tiredness and pains in the body,do pay attention to it.
Zaini.
Dori:
Manal 'the cold' is a dutch word translated into English what becomes senseless. I meant to say that I am always get it very, very cold during the first hour of the transfusion.
How can I pay attention to this problem?
I am wondering of this is related to my legs issue...?
I will start with the first, easy looking but not for me, "Drinking more liquids will definitely be helpful" advice. Btw what kind of liquids? Only water?
Zaini:
Dore,
As i stated earlier that i almost always have low BP,so a friend of mine told me a home remedy,and guess what,it really really worked,my problem is that i sweat a lot,and especially in the morning when i am doing my household chores and in the kitchen while cooking,and what usually happened that by noon i was so dehydrated that i started feeling dizzy and light headed and my hands would begin to shake,and although i tried to drink a lot of water it didn't help that much,so what i did was i took approx 500 ml water,squeezed a lemon into it and a pinch of salt,and i kept drinking it through out the day instead of my plain water.And it really worked,i wasn't dizzy or light headed and i felt quite fresh,may be it replaced the salt i lost through sweating,but it did work :biggrin do try it.
Zaini.
Dori:
Thank you. I will try it tomorrow. Promised! It's gonna be a very hot day.
Andy Battaglia:
If your BP is low, you probably do need a little more salt. Drinking water without also replacing minerals like sodium and potassium can make one sick, so if you're drinking a lot of water, make sure you also accounting for the increased mineral need, especially sodium.
