Blood pressure : I have a few questions; how are you testing your blood pressure?At rest, not eating for 30 minutes, feet on the floor while sitting? How we measure blood pressure makes a difference. A doctor in person during a physical examination can help determine if there are any health issues related to high blood pressure changes; such as looking in the eyes. If so, then 24 hr monitoring may be needed.

This is probably nothing but my blood pressure keeps going down and down each time it's checked. I'm usually 112/80 but then it was 106/74, then 104/72, then the last time it was 80/54. I was laying down waiting for colonoscopy so I wasn't stressed.
