The nurse said his blood pressure dropped so far down, she couldn't find his pulse! He sounded

oye... I'm glad to hear that help was near by when this happened :/

We've had a few close calls with my Grandma recently that have scared us recently, and thankfully each time help was near by (the last time was under simmilar circumstances where she was going in for a doctors appointment and had to be rushed to the hospital)

Hopefully things go better :/

So far everything is good - The hospital ran several tests to make sure he didn't have a heart attack or other complications, and gave a him a (reasonably) clean bill of health and sent him home.

And I'm glad that your Grandma was lucky too!
