Can Blood Pressure Vary After A Mastectomy?
Thank you. My mother is 75 years of age and had a mastectomy last week thursday. Her blood pressure is reading low on the dystolic measure and I wanted to check this was not a cause for concern. The last reading 5 minutes ago = 125/57. She is also a type 2 diabetic, and has BP tablets and suffers with glucoma.

HI
Well come to HCM
Mastectomy and blood pressure nothing to do with each other unless have some bleeding from the wound side else this is not related, in my opinion better stop the reading of blood pressure without any reason, hope this helps.
