Lower Then Normal Bp
Posted: 04-29-05 17:49pm

I didn't see any section on this but my bp seems a bit to low. About a year ago I had my bp tested and it was about 140/98, I haven't changed my lifestyle. A week ago I tested my bp again and it was 110/80, and yesterday it was 100/60. I am about 240 pounds and a strong build about 6"1'. I drink fluids regularly. I have also been getting chest pains for a while as well. I would just like to know if my blood pressure is getting a bit to low.

That doesn't seem too low. 140/98 is high actually.. Normal is about 110/80 I think. Keep an eye on it though because if it keeps going down it may signal something going on.

That bp is too low(normal is the 120/80) and you should go to the doctor with that.These chest pains+low bp dont sound good.If the chest pain radiate anywhere(particularly hand or mandible) it`s necessary for you to see the doctor.

Hi there! B/p regulations have changed over the years as we are all different and b/p machines vary also, anxiety and stress can raise a b/p along with going to the Dr. Stress and anxiety can give you chest pains also along with heartburn, stomach problems and your gal bladder. My b/p runs low like 80/60 and sometimes lower, it used to be high because I am hyper but now I am losing blood and they do not know where but they are keeping an eye on my heart murmur. Medications can make your b/p fluxuate also. What I am trying to say here is that I am not a Dr., if you feel that there is a problem, you should get it checked out and do not just settle for one opinion, get 2 or three, it is better to be safe then to have a heart attack or a stroke.
Keep us posted on what you find out.
The best to you.
Sincerely,
sandy

I am not on any medication and I am not bleeding or have had any wounds that would of caused me to lose enough blood to change my bp. It also read that low several days in a row and chest pains have been happening for quite some time.

My situation is that I am bleeding internally and they do not know where unless it is from my heart murmur. You should get your situation checked out, my b/p gets low enough where I can pass out and that is no fun.
Keep us posted on what you find out.

That bp is not too low, some people naturally have low bp... My normal bp is 95/55.. There's really nothing to worry about unless you start feeling dizzy, or hearing your own heartbeat...
