Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
my blood pressure readings today have been 106/69, 119/62, and 108/64 are any of these low? yesterday my reading was 80/50 at the dr's ofc. i'm currently on high blood pressure meds. and lost 25lbs. dr. my take me off blood pressure med. he said to monitor it til tomorrow.
I passed carefully through your question and would explain that your blood pressure values are not too low today. But those of yesterday are concerning.
Anti-hypertensive therapy could be the cause of your complaints.
For this reason, I recommend you to closely monitor your blood pressure values for a few days. Taking plenty of water is also necessary to stay well hydrated.
If your blood pressure values are below 110/60 mm Hg most of the time, and you feel dizzy or weak, I would recommend discussing with your doctor on the possibility of reducing the doses of your anti-hypertensive drugs.
Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Wishing all the best,
Dr. Iliri

Suggest Treatment For High Blood Pressure
Hello! Welcome on HCM! I passed carefully through your question and would explain that your blood pressure values are not too low today. But those of yesterday are concerning. Anti-hypertensive therapy could be the cause of your complaints. Dehydration or an electrolyte imbalance could also contribute to this clinical scenario. For this reason, I recommend you to closely monitor your blood pressure values for a few days. Taking plenty of water is also necessary to stay well hydrated. If your blood pressure values are below 110/60 mm Hg most of the time, and you feel dizzy or weak, I would recommend discussing with your doctor on the possibility of reducing the doses of your anti-hypertensive drugs. Hope you will find this answer helpful! Wishing all the best, Dr. Iliri
