Complained of dizziness and had to have his blood pressure checked
Time: Saturday Aug 29, 1959
Place: England, United Kingdom
Details: Eisenhower's health issues forced him to give up smoking and make some changes to his dietary habits, but he still indulged in alcohol. During a visit to England, he complained of dizziness and had to have his blood pressure checked on August 29, 1959; however, before dinner at Chequers on the next day his doctor General Howard Snyder recalled Eisenhower "drank several gin-and-tonics and one or two gins on the rocks ... three or four wines with the dinner".

Best-effort ordering. Some events may appear out of order since many are only known to the year, but they are usually around the same period.
