Hugs to everyone hope you all have a nice day!

Hi Debbie,
I do know that the SNS does and can affect BP regulation. Anything that triggers our SNS (even if WE don't notice it) can cause fluctuations. Labile Blood pressure changes can also be caused by certain medications (I JUST read about that regarding my own......it is a negative and abnormal side effect of either the Topomax I WAS on or the Cymbalta......I cannot remember. Are you on any meds that could be exacerbating this?? Some of us are on BP meds to control it. The fun never ends, huh??? Have a good day!!!
