Low blood pressure

I am just back from a consultant visit where I have been told they dont know what to do with me. I had cardiac pauses after a loop was fitted so now have a pacemaker. I am still passing out and they think is to do with low BP but dont have any treatment apart from to take salt and keep hydrated.

I am on 100mg of levo for an underactive thyroid

I’m no expert, but since being kept on low BP, by meds I’m more careful about stress and in hot weather. Heat opens the blood vessels and reduces BP even more. Good luck.
