hello

Its strange what low blood pressure can do,
I understand completely its ridiculous trying to medicate something when thats not the problem.
my condition is called vaso vagal syncope and the conditions inwhcih you discribed are near identical to that of your daughter.
there are hundreds of side affects that affect different people in different ways. If you need to discuss anything ill help as best as i can, Im 20 in July and have had vaso vagal the entire time and would like to help if i could x Sasha
