It has been proven to dilate veins therefore lowering BP. Your heart rate increases to compensate (usually not an issue unless a brisk walk puts your heart at risk). That is one area that is absolutely accepted by the medical community. I did way too much research...

But if you say it makes your autonomic dysfunction worse, I'm not screwing around with that. I'll wait till I see the neuro.

Thank you so much for sharing that.
