Question 9

what can cause my blood pressure to be too low?  example 100/66; 93/65;

Accepted Answer

Low blood pressure: Before asking why is blood pressure low, we need to ask how you feel at time your BP is low. More worrisome if you're weak, lightheaded, dizzy, etc. In that case, see your FamilyDoc or Heart specialist immediately. BP meds are common cause of low BP. Resting/sitting/laying down BP tends to be lower than upright BP after exercise/activity. Anemia &amp; dehydration can also drop BP. Maybe bad equipment?

what does it mean to have a blood pressure of 150/100? how serious is it?

Accepted Answer

Depends: A single elevated blood pressure reading is meaningless because blood pressure can go up for a number of reasons including pain and anxiety. Chronically elevated blood pressure needs to be addressed because it can lead to problems with the heart, kidneys an brain.
