Wow, thank you so much! I had the hypotension issue before the gallbladder issue. Honestly, everything has been a bit of a mess for the past three years. As of now the hypotension is very well under control with 10mg of midodrine every three hours. As for the gallbladder and antibiotics I feel like I'm on a hamster wheel and can't catch up. Everything that has happened has caused my immune system to not function very well. I contract infections often and the only way my system can fight them off is by using heavy antibiotics and steroids. About two weeks ago I had a walking phemonia, which is why they gave me cipro and the prednisone. The heating pad sounds like a wonderful idea and I will give that a shot right away, as for the Kefir I am going to wait and ask my doctor, thank you again you are extremely thorough.
