Sitting here feeling nervous. I've never been ill as such but for the
last month I've had flue-type symptoms which have now cleared up
somewhat, but then the doctor diagnosed a chest infection and
gingevitus (sp), which antibiotics have cleared up. Now I find that
my blood pressure is dropping like a stone, coupled with increased
pulse (todays measurement using my home bp kit shows a pulse of 99
with bp of 115/58). I've always had standard bp of around 125/74 and
a normal pulse. Doctor had me in today for fasting blood samples and
an ECG, so I'm waiting for the results.

Being self employed I have to pull the espresso bar out at least 3
days a week to pay the mortgage, so I'm not looking forward to any
illness - any medical types hazard a guess at what might be going on
while I wait for the results?


Um, yeah, a cousin of mine had exactly the same symptoms and
complaints last year. The gingivitis is the give-away, apparently.
Normally it doesn't coincide with very low blood pressure, and it's a
sure-fire ind

Yes but what was the diagnosis?!! indication of what.


I thought TOG might be giving a second opinion agreeing with Dr. Ginge's anaemia diagnosis.
