NW ILLINOIS | I've been going thru this with my Cardio guy. I have a history
of artery blockage every 12 years (just had my 3rd).
About 6 years ago I had a mild bleed in my left eye.
Previous doctors wanted my BP low, under 120/60.
After my last event I would have slight dizzy spells and
kinda felt funny.
I watch my BP several times a day, more if needed.
I show my Cardio Dr. that my BP was dropping below 110/50
and even lower.
He said lets change your BP meds. Dropped one med in morning
and one in the evening.
Now I'm up to 120/60 most of the time, but once in awhile
it will still drop to 110/55, but I feel fine.
Still worry about eye bleed some, but at 79 and still going
strong I think I'll just try to maintain.
