Could The Low Heart Rate Mean Blood Pressure Or Anemia?
My resting heart rate is 57 bpm, ( im 31 yrs old, 5 7 145 lbs female, not overweight but havent worked out in years, I lack muscle mass). Does this indicate low blood pressure or anemia? I do get light headed if I stand up too fast, I havent been tired at bedtime hrs, usually doing fall asleep easily and today i feel a short of pressure on the right side of my cheat, which is why I checked my heart rate. I also wonder if I may be pregnant, although my great rate should be in the 80s if its at all like my previous pregnancy.

Hello, welcome to Hcm.
Low heart rate has nothing to do with blood pressure or anemia. Infact in anemia HR. is more than normal.
light headedness can be due to pooling of blood in leg viens on sudden standing.
For pregnancy do a UPT kit test and follow up with your gynecologist.
