Heart Ashley............SO Sorry

I have not experienced dizzy stuff at all since implanted. Definitely not anything from the SCS....... You gotta make that report to the Doc so they can evaluate.

I hope and pray all will be well,

Hi I'm wondering perhaps do you have low blood pressure. This can cause dizziness and especially when you get up quickly. I do suffer occasionally but wouldn't put it down to my SCS. I'd say maybe something else could be causing it. As you say you have apt with your Dr. Good luck with that.

Default BP

Blood pressure came to my mind too Jackie.

No dizzyness for me.

I do have a bit of a scramle in my brain at times because the "buzz" in my legs makes my brain think I am going to fall.

let us know what the doc says

Thumbs up Yeah

I have experienced the low blood pressure thing..... not from a dizziness perspective so much so as from darn near passing out when arising from seating. Yup, OH, and good seeing you Jackiey!

You too Mark

Hope all going well for you now and that you are working away.
All good here in our new home Thank God. We are so happy and stress free with no mortgage to contend with but a much bigger place and garden. Keeps us busy busy.
I will try to get here more often but just life is going so fast and my stim is playing a blinder, well most days. Must remember to take it easy too. We are in for a mini heat wave here, ha ha a week at the most. That's our Irish Summer for ya!!!!
Hope Samson is doing well too

Take care and will chat again real soon

Jackie

Default Dizzy spells....

Not from my SCS per se, but usually it's from some of my medications.....and the low blood pressure when rising like the others have mentioned.

I hope you report this to doc and something can be done about it.

Caring,
Rae


Jackie! I know what you mean about the busy thing and overdoing!
Guilty as charged.
I've been scarce also, but that's changing for the better. Life is full of so many 'obstacles' and 'surprises'.....

Have to start somewhere
help me Lord get the job done

Thank you Lord
Amen!
