Tuesday my husband and I went out to eat and then to the bank. As we were walking into the bank he sort of passed out and fell against the wall. He asked me to take him to the Er. His BP was only 60/20. They worked 4 hours before they got it above 80. He spent Tuesday night in ICU. He was then in a regular room until Friday. He came home, but I seriously don't think he much better. He walked from the truck to thehouse last evening and got dizzy. He spent 4 minutes changing out some florescent light bulbs and had to sit down because he was winded. They took him off his BP meds because it is still low. They said he was dehydratd. Before he left he was told his iron was low. He was on a holter monitor. He is scheduled for some out patient tests in the next few weeks.
Please pray that they find what is wrong. It's not right for him to get be so weak, dizzy and winded.

Thanks Max and DG. We have no news. HE came home from the hospital on Friday and is scheduled for several out--patient tests. Right ow I know his BP is extremely erratic. It is up and down...back and forth. There seems to be no pattern. I decided to start writing it down when we take it and see if we can find any pattern.
Thanks for the good thoughts and prayers. My best GUESS is some sort of heart blockage. I'm a teacher..not a doctor...but this has the doctors baffled so far.
