it's not uncommon for me to get dizzy upon standing. happened first thing this morning. i bend at the waist, bringing my head down to about belt level. in a few seconds, i'm good to go.

at last reading, my bp was 112/60.

i eat salt and drink water, in the hope that will help maintain blood volume. i expect, though, that your docs are not going to recommend dedicated consumption of salt.

Tell us the truth, Tim. Who is the girl, and what did you do with her?

sentences like this always put me in mind of a story in an early "Mad" magazine drawn by Jack Davis, written by some madman, parodying pulp novels versus pulp movies:

First panel (the novel): "Blood (pant),the walls (pant), the ceiling (pant), the floor (pant), my pant (suit)...BLOOD!! WHAT HAVE I DONE??....ruined a perfectly good suit, that's what I've done."

Next panel (the movie):"Blood (pant),the walls (pant), the ceiling (pant), the floor (pant), my coat (tie)...BLOOD!!....Where is all the blood? Shouldn't there be some?"

Anyway, glad you're OK, Mr C.
