Does Anyone Experience Low Blood Pressure When Standing?
A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question 💭

I understand low BP can be a manifestation of PD. My ex-husband frequently passes out when standing up due to low BP. They adjusted down the cardidopa/levidopa down and increased the low BP med, but the BP still stays low and now the tremors are back. Anyone else run into this problem?

I’ve passed out more than once when I stand up and was hospitalized once. It seems that the major problem is that you’re not drinking enough water. I was given an iv of saline solution and not only did I have no problem standing up and but my blood pressure went to normal
