That would suck, because I have to think it is helping with the pain (please??? maybe???? just a little???).

Ironically, my feet are not burning as badly today but the REST of me is. I feel badly sunburned all over (NOT as bad as the feet thing usually is). My head hurts ALL the time. I'm sick of meds. I'm ready to come off of all of them. I don't believe anything works.

Oh, and I don't take ANY pain meds regularly. I only take them when I get desperate. I thank you all for your suggestions. We'll keep some of the stuff you suggested in the car along with some bags just in case they don't work! (yuck).
Zanaflex is related to clonidine...and they both reduce blood pressures. (about 30% of Zanaflex users get lowered pressure)

If blood pressure is a concern, I suggest you invest in a blood pressure cuff...the manual ones are only about $20.

Motion sickness/dizziness may be independent of blood pressure. It may be central in the brain, connected to the
semi-circular canals of the inner ear.

High blood pressure does not give symptoms typically unless very high. Some people who have high blood pressure can feel a pressure in the chest when it goes up, but that is very selective. Fluctuations can be felt, and the drops are more obvious than the rises in general.
