[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had significant orthstatic hypotension as a teen girl and through my 20s. What helped was seeing a cardiologist who actually recommended I eat more salt. By the way, the growth spurt thing is not real. It's an urban myth. Think about you giving blood. Your blood volume returns to normal fairly quickly--usually around 24 hours. Your child is not growing fast enough to outpace that.[/quote] OP here; I've started upping the salt in her diet. Clearly can't hurt.[/quote] Maybe start her day with a cup of coffee too?[/quote]
