A member asked:

Is 101/63 blood pressure normal while laying in bed?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends on details: Numbers are just numbers... and mean little without context (without knowing the whole picture). 101/63 is normal for most people. It may be low for a person who gets lightheaded from low blood pressure. It is high for babies. Whether a BP number is ok or not depends on what the person's usual BP is, how fast any pressure changes happened, and whether or not there are symptoms or past disorders.
