Hi Joan, I'm only 5 months post-op but I developed low blood pressure too. I have to stand REAL slowly or I get very dizzy and faint. still, it's a lot better than the dangers of high blood pressure. my doc says it should level out eventually and in the meantime add moroe salt to my food, what? hahah1 only 6 months ago I had to keep salt out of my food. isn't that a hoot! all we can do is hang in there and reap the benefits our hard work. hugs and healing thoughts! Colleen

<b>~*~I SAID A PRAYER FOR YOU TODAY~*~ I said a prayer for you today And know God must have heard- I felt the answer in my heart Although He spoke no word I didn't ask for wealth or fame, I knew you wouldn't mind, I asked Him to send treasures Of a far more lasting kind, I asked that He'd be near you At the start of each new day, To grant you health and blessings And friends to share your way. I asked for happiness for you In all things great and small, But it was for His loving care I prayed the most of all.~*~Hugs to you~*~</b>
