Can colonoscopy be performed on patients with high blood pressure?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No problem: Whereas so many americans have hypertension, colonoscopy is frequently performed on patients with high bp. You will be monitored closely during the procedure, and if any extra medication is needed, it can be given.

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.
