HI Everyone!
My sister was recenyly diagnosed with Vasovagel Response. This explains the faiting spells that I have had as well, so I am sure this is what I have. My question involves sodium intake. I have avoided salt like the plague in my weight loss journey, but have now read up on Vasovagel and have found that it is recommended to up your salt and water intake. Just wondering if anyone else is dealing with Vasovagel, and what has been their experience as far as recommandations from a doctor as far as sodium intake. I have been keeping my sodium at 1500-2000 a day, but wondering if I should up it to 2500-3000 as I have seen it is suggested.

BTW. I know. I should see a doctor. But I am looking for helpful advise until I can get in. Thanks!

    I would ask your dr. But until you can up your sodium intake to 2500. If you have to much you could end up with high blood pressure.
