A member asked:

I have low blood pressure. 100/55 to 90/50 unless anxious! my dad has to have surgery for aortic aneurysm. does this mean i will get one cause low bp?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Low BP: The low BP actually makes the probability of an aneurysm less. The lower BP causes less wall stress in the blood vessels and less wall damage. Some aneurysms do have a genetic component and there isn't enough information here to say whether that is involved in your situation.
