What Causes Low Blood Pressure With Rapid Weight Loss?

I would explain as follows:
Detailed Answer:
Hello!
Welcome on HCM!
I carefully reviewed your recent clinical symptomatology and would explain that your mild blood pressure decrease should not raise your fears about a possible heart attack, because it is a normal reaction to find lower BP values with weight decrease.
So, your doctor is right.
The greater the body weight the higher the trends of BP values and the contrary as well (low body weight leads to lower BP values).
With a normal ECG and your actual metabolic profile (optimal weight, low BP values, great cholesterol, etc.) you are set at the lowest probability of having a future heart attack.
So, relax and don't worry about!
I just recommend you to be more careful with your body weight lowering program (it should be more gradual and supervised).
Coming to this point, I advise you to keep following this healthy life-style regimen and check periodically your BP values.
Hope to have been helpful to you!
In case of any further uncertainties, feel free to ask me again!
Kind regards,
Dr. Iliri
