question: I have been diagnosed with Orthostatic hypo tension. I get so dizzy that I can barely walk in a straight line and have passed out. They have given me midodrine and florineff. The Florineff I stopped taking because of the high blood sugars (I am diabetic). These drugs really do not help. Some days are ok and I can maintain balance although still dizzy and others are terrible. I ve been to the cardiologist, a neurologist have tried all of their suggestions, but nothing helps. I also have an increased salty taste in my mouth, not to everything it seems only things that our sugary, if I eat sweet I taste extreme salt. I did have a CT scan but no MRI.......is it possible that this is something else? I did have Ketoacidosis about a year and a half ago that I was not hospitalized for which is when this started.....I am a type II diabetic.
