Health update

Since December 2016 I have been having dizzy/fainting episodes due to low blood pressure. My GP said I should just be aware of the symptoms and there was no real answer why I get these episodes.

Sunday I was at a restaurant and had my worst episode yet and was taken by ambulance to the emergency room, and later moved up to the hospital for observation. My heart rhythm was monitored all night and my blood pressure was measured numerous times. The next morning they did an ultra sound of my heart and found a leak in my pulmonary valve. This is relatively normal, but in my case it was a bit more than average. It could be a coincidence, but could also explain my low blood pressure and fainting episodes. I will be called in to a heart specialist for a follow up and will have to keep monitoring it, but otherwise I can keep doing what I'm doing since I'm otherwise very healthy.
