I had a tilt table test on 11/29. Was going well during the first part, but after they gave me the sublingual nitroglycerin, my heart rate dropped into the 50's and systolic BP into the 50's at the 17 minute mark. So was positive for dysautonomia. Didn't feel well after the test, but about 2 days after the test I began to feel lightheaded, dizzy, and severe brain fog all the time. Feels like I have post concussion syndrome (only thing I can think to compare it too). I been getting headaches a lot and now when I try to drive I get really dizzy and nausea and a bad headache. So cannot currently drive and just feel horrible all the time since this TTT.
Blood pressure has been normal the whole time and a little high other times. They want to me to consume lots of salt and water and take mididrone, although my BP isn't low. But my question is does this feeling ever go away or is it normal to feel this way after a TTT so long after? Only time I felt like this before the test, was when I tried to heavily exert myself, but now I feel lightheaded,dizzy, and foggy with headaches all the time for the past week. Just looking for answers to go back to the way I was before the test.
The cardiologist who ordered the test said to take the midirone but my blood pressure is normal or a little high at times. I just feel horrible, dizzy, foggy and bad heavhes and nausea all the time. Regret getting this test as I didnt feel this bad before it. Also unsure where to post this on this forum as I am new here. Thanks
