Taking Methotraxate Injection For High BP Of Around 110/60
I take blood pressure pills and often have high blood presssure like l60/80 or l65/90 then when I go to my doctor and have to wait to be seen I often get 120/80 which I understand is perfect for an 88 year old diabetic and arthritic person. Today while at the clinic getting my methotraxate injection my blood pressure was 110/60 what is going on?

hi
you are perfectly fine for your age.
one episode of varying lower blood pressure will not affect you until you have some other signs & symptoms of giddiness or weakness.
if the readings are persistently low,then you can go on sliding your medications for blood pressure under medical supervision.
all the best
tyake care.
