My blood pressure is 98 over 70. Is that ok? Or too low? I am tired, dizzy last night but not right at the moment.

Depending on your size , but if your on this website I assume your not a petite person lol Yes that would Be low . Dizziness do you need to go to the dr.

try adding some salt to your food. when i was on a VLC diet my DP would drop pretty low if i wasn't getting enough sodium.

Never thought of that !!! That's a good idea !

I also posted a thread about this very same thing. My Blood pressure is now 96/63. It's been that way about a month after surgery. I also freaked out but my Dr., said that is probably my "new" normal. As long as I wasn't weak or dizzy & my heart rate was normal - which it is - then he's not concerned at all. But you did say you were tired & dizzy, so there is a cause for concern. Check with your dr. You'd rather be safe! Please keep us informed....

I am 4 weeks out going on 5 . Just saw may primary doctor yesterday. I am still on some of my bp meds. If the stystolic drops under ninety that is to low you could pass out. Your diastolic should not drop below 60. So you really need to watch it! They have taken me off most of my bp meds but still on some. My surgeon took me off all in the beginning but my cardio is tapering me off more slowly. Good Luck!
