I have high blood pressure. I have not
been feeling well for about 2 weeks, now,
so I decided to take my blood pressure and
it was low. It has been running approx.
80 to 90's over 55-60's. I've been having
a headache every day. Today I felt
worse. My doctors are not in their office
today and won't be until monday. Shoul I
be concerned until I can see my doctor?
Thank you

Hypotension is the medical term for low
blood pressure, which is defined as below
90/60. This occurs when the pressure on
the blood vessel walls falls below normal
limits. Low blood pressure that does not
cause symptoms is generally considered to
be a sign of good cardiovascular health
because there is less stress on the heart
and blood vessels.
Sounds like this is a good thing, but if
your feeling bad I would contact your
Doc.. I would ask my Doc. But until then.
I would not worry.
