A member asked:

Low blood pressure 97/65, low sugar 4.4 how can i raise both? i'm constantly light headed and get "black outs" -nil vision (10+ times a day) help

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Complex: You can raise your sugar and BP by eating sugar and salt, supplemented by fluids. A low serum cortisol can cause both conditions, so a Cortrosyn stimulation test may be indicated to rule out adrenal insufficiency. This is rare and you probably don't have it. Hyperventilation can mimic these symptoms and is far more common.
