What is wrong with me?!
Usually every morning when I wake up I am a little dizzy and light headed but after my shake and water it usually improves. Not today...I have been dizzy and light headed every time I get up today and feel nauseous after anything I eat, even my shake! The I begin to get a headache. I feel horrible. Called the surgeons office and the nurse said they think my blood pressure is too low so I called the pcp and her nurse thinks dehydration possibly but they d/c'd the blood pressure medicine even though it was also for pvc's. Blood pressure has ranged from 85-100 over about 64 all day, staying mostly in the low 90's/64. I am not feeling good, but have still been drinking my smar****er and I know I have not been able to get in my protein. I hate this and just want to feel better. I took my sugar this morning before eating and it was 97 so it's not that. I am at the point of going to the ER to get an IV and medicine to just feel better. I'm tired of crying :(
I have been talking to them all day. Earlier the surgeons office told me to eat salt and retake my Bp. It only went up from 93 to 96. The pcp office told me to keep drinking fluids. I don't know what else to do. I can't do this all night and hope I feel better in the morning. This sucks and they are both closed already.
I agree with Bette, give them a call. I would ask them to get me in if I felt that bad. Hope you feel better soon.

Are you diabetic? If you are, check your sugar levels. Make sure you keep getting those fluids in - but it sounds like you're doing okay with that. But first thing in the morning, if you still feel like **** get in to see SOMEone and don't take "no" for an answer.
Do you live with someone? If so, ask them to just keep an eye on you.
