Low bp

Is anyone else's bp low?

Naturally or due to surgery? I’ve always run in the 10-7 range. First couple of days post surgery it was 9-5 range. Now it’s back to normal (1 week post op).
I did notice my resting HR went down from 70s to 50s though and that’s back up as well.

I had to go to the doctor and have my BP med adjusted. It was lowered. I was getting dizzy now, I'm ok. So due to your surgery and weight loss your BP will probably be lower.

I am totally off my bp meds. Just kinda weak, which probably goes with the diet. Thanks!

About a week after surgery I was feeling strange- it was a weird dizzy feeling. I checked my BP at home and it was 90/53.... so I figured I needed Water and salt to help raise it.... it helped a bit and I checked it later I. Day and was still in the 90/60 range. I was like this 2 days then called my Dr. he said to stop the BP pill. Did and a few days later without the pill I am at 115/70 ish. THE add said because I still can't drink all my liquids (I am 3 weeks out) I'm a bit dehydrated. HE said to increase my salt a bit and ensure I drink water

So if you feel your BP is low post surgery and you are on meds... call your primary care dr and they will probably have you stop your meds

Yes, my blood pressure has come way down over the last several months since surgery. I always used to be around 150/85. Now I am always around 100/65. I have never been put on blood pressure medication.

If you are drinking enough and getting some salt, and your BP is still low, you should go get checked at your doctor's. If you develop a high fever or start feeling really badly, be sure to seek treatment right away.
