V-V, Zoloft, salt, water and just lying down!

Hi,

The Zoloft has helped me tremendously with VV, also using more salt and drinking more water. The few times I've felt an episode come on, I simply lay down and it goes away. Apparently one of the side effects of some anti-depressants is blood pressure regulation. This has certainly worked for me. I hope anyone out there still looking for answers will talk to their Docs about this type of therapy. I wish everyone good health...Debra
