Hi Janice, I went to my local neuro today. We were talking about blood sugar, feeling cold, and other things. Blood pressure that drops when you stand up is VERY DEFINITELY a red flag. Janice, if you can call( or someone can call for you)your neuro or your physician, first thing in the A.M., and ask somebody there to give you an appointment today (FRIDAY), you can discuss this... Blood pressure can be lowered from PD, or from the other meds you take. In any case, please consult with your physician today!!. Perhaps the Requip is too much and should be reduced, or your other meds could be reduced. Try to avoid being alone in the house if you are feeling at all faint. Call someone, and let them know you're feeling faint or lightheaded if this feeling continues. Don't isolate. Hope this helps a bit.
