Hi Steven, I had 15 falls in 10 day and only suffered some bumps and bruises due to orthostatic hypotension but then the broken hip happened and my doc started treating the lightedness with midodrine. That stopped the falling and now after 3 yrs, I no longer have low blood pressure and have been taken off of midodrine with no negative outcome. I don't know why but I'm guessing my body has acclimated to the carbo-dopo and I've gotten better about managing my fluid intake. I've gone 6 mo without midodrine and my BP remains in the normal range and lightedness and falls have stopped, Yeah!!!

I have been fludriocortisone 0-1 mg once a day for about two months. I guess its doing what its spposed to do raise my BP. I used to get light headed when getting out of bed or getting up from my recliner. So far no side effects .

For BP I take 4, 0.5mg Fludrocortisone in the morning (15yrs), Midodrine 5mg 3/day, Droxidopa 300mg 3/day. I've also have orthrothistratic hypotension (20yrs). Dr believes I've had PD for 15 to 20yrs, been falling that long. Official diagnosis was April 25, 2022. Hope info helps.

Have found that salt tablets work much better in keeping blood pressure balanced.

We haven't found anything that works for low blood pressure. Many doctors have addressed this issue with my husband he is now in a care center. They watch him very carefully because when his blood when his standing blood pressure drops he falls. Any other suggestions
