    Hello Joan, thank you for letting us know that you have heard from Barbara. I'm not surprised her BP was low, it often is once you've spent a couple of days in bed. I remember being told to sit up slowly a few times before I got up because that would help my BP to rise. If you are in touch please send her my best wishes. DD

    Thank you Joan.

    I've been absent for a few days as the family have been here but Barbara has been very much in my thoughts.

    I hope the 'feeling faint' business is just a passing blip. After my first 'walk', after my knee revision, I passed out spectacularly on the commode :roll: I was fine a fterwards and I'm sure our lovely Barbara will be, too.
    If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

    Aw, dear Barbara,

    Tons of love to you. I am very prone to fainting post op. I was told I breathe too shallowly and to take deeper breaths. I hope that it passes after the first time you get out of bed, Barbara. I only do the fainting thing after the initial getting out of bed post op.

    Elna x

    ps Thank you Joan for the update
    The happiest people don't have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything.

    If you can lay down at night knowing in your heart that you made someone's day just a little bit better, you know you had a good day.

    Hi Barbara
    I hope you are having a better day as well
    I was taken in by ambulance when a car reversed over my ankle. I was on a trolley in the corridor and my BP hit the floor, the tipped me upside down and I was fine shortly afterwards.
    Sending (((()))))

    Love

    Hello everyone I hope you all have a good day.
    I had a text from Barbara this morning she fainted on the way to the toilet.
    she's having oxygen and the physio is seeing her about her leg they think it's the ligaments.
    I will let you know if I hear anymore.
    take care.
