You are so right concerning the BP drop. For my husb.even eating small meals can trigger this. His eyes would glaze over and he would lose con. For months the drs thought he was having small strokes until he was dx with MSA. Now he is on BP meds and doing much better. It is still some noticable after breakfast and if he drinks a large glass of milk. So with his meals, he has coffee, 2 glasses of water and finishes with some milk.
And the falls....well that is another issue. Last fall he fell and broke his neck. That mended and in March he fell 6 times and on the last one he broke his hip, so... if he is not in WC, someone has to hold onto him and walk every step with him.
Thanks for the reminder, that if you are feeling "funny" it is probably normal for the PD/MSA.
