Suggest Treatment For Dizziness, Fatigue And Low BP

All day I have been dizzy, lightheaded, weak, just not me. I have had dizzy before, not often, so my doctor cut my blood pressure pills in half and everything has been fine. My blood pressure cuff keeps saying error and then once said 118 over 104. I know that is not good.

Hello,

First I would suggest that you check the size of your blood pressure cuff as they have different size for different arm circumference. Your symptoms of fatigue dizziness all could be because of low blood pressure.

I would suggest to visit your doctor again and mention him a particular time when you feel symptoms and all the medications you are taking. It would also be helpful if you chart your hourly blood pressure for a few days before you visit the doctor. That way the doctor can pin down the exact medication that needs adjustment.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Saralkumar R. Desai,
