@brnbear99 Caleb has described the feeling of shakiness in his legs. He says he feels "out of it".  I've never heard him say he feels like he's going to pass out though. All the best to you. Lorraine

Thank you!

He's fine until the toothbrushing? That's very odd. My sure sign is the onset of a headache only on the left side.

He actually isn't low. He toothpaste taste just reminds him of it. It's a Pavlov's dog reaction.
