I've not posted for ages but read a few posts everyday. You all give me strength to cope with my partner, for which I am grateful.
He has been on steroids (fludrocortisone) for nearly 2 years to help raise his blood pressure as he was having syncopes, it worked for sometime. However recently his BP has started dropping again and he has fainted several mornings. We saw GP the other day who doesn't want to increase medication or give him something new. GP suggested we stop the Donepezil 10mg which OH has been on for over 4 years. My question is has anyone else experienced this and will there be any obvious effect not taking Donepezil?
Best wishes to everyone
