  1. OK. Drank 2 big glasses of water and ate ramen (very salty), and did it again: Time: BP, rate 0 min: 110/66, 81 1 min: 107/65, 102 (irregular) 2 min: 94/70, 103 3 min: 99/68, 104 (irregular) 4 min: 98/60, 104 (irregular) 5 min, 98/61, 109 (irregular) 6 min: 107/63, 110 (irregular) 7 min: 115/63, 110 (irregular) Didn't quite make it to 30 this time. I finally gave up after 7 minutes because my lower legs and feet were burning. I wonder if I should show this to the next doctor I see.
  2. Sounds like a good idea. I did some poor man's tilt table testing myself, when I don't think I was dehydrated. time, blood pressure, heart rate, symptoms lying down for 5 minutes, 109/69, 80 2 minutes standing, 109/60, 109 (irregular), feeling light-headed, my feet and lower legs begin to burn 3 minutes standing, 97/62, 113 6 minutes standing, 110/62, 120 (irregular), legs are very uncomfortable and trembling My feet still tingle.
  3. Thanks. I live in Memphis and the closest I see here is in Nashville. I've set up an appointment with a neurologist like my endocrinologist recommended.
  4. My cardiologist doesn't take me very seriously about this, but if I stand up straight and still for even a few minutes my feet and lower legs will feel like they're burning and they will start to tremble. I notice sometimes my heart rate increases a lot after standing up from a reclining position. My cardiologist has marked me down for "inappropriate sinus tachycardia" and criticizes me for not staying hydrated enough and not exercising enough.
