I recently had a tilt table test and i heard the nurse say that they were not able to get how low my bp dropped because it wasnt palpable. what does that mean?

It means your BP was below the level that could be detected with their equipment. The results of this test, and all lab tests, should be discussed with your Physician as it is only one part of your overall medical evaluation.
