I was wondering whether there was anyone else who suffers from hypotension? In case people are wonderng, hypotension is what they call abnormally and dangerously low blood pressure.
I was diagnosed in 2002 when i was preggaz with my Firstborn, and I thought it was bad then. Until this time around.....
Carrying twins means another one who needs my low blood supply plus being anaemic on top just doesn't sit well. I cannot go shopping anymore and if I do, I have to go with someone. I cannot stand for longer than 30 seconds without getting dizzy, then I start sweating (in this time i go pale), and then the room starts spinning like i am on a really fast ride. I have come very very close to fainting. And its not unusual to see me sitting on the floor in the shopping centre, I have people who make sniggering comments or just stare as they walk past. Sometimes I just want to yell at them "I CAN'T HELP IT!!!"![]()
I think I would much rather embarass myself by sitting down on the floor than having to go to the hospital for fainting. *sighs* I just wish I didn't take my good health for granted before I fell pregnant. I knew what it was like with Corey, of course its going to be ten times as worse with twins.
Is there anyone else who suffers from this condition?
