What Causes Low Blood Pressure Levels?
My husband had a stent put in 2 years ago, and on meds that they said he should not drink a lot of fluids. His blood pressure for last week everyday on average is 87 over 44 to 47 app. Super tired. He wont drink water and I think hes dehydrated...he does have coffee, about 4 a day. Worried about lowblood pressure.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Is he taking any medication? On any anti hypertensive drugs? If he is not on cardiac failure or renal failure means he can take liquids to prevent dehydration.
If he is on antihypertensive medication need to decrease the dose under your cardiologist advice.
Also check for serum electrolytes, hemoglobin and cardiac functioning status.
Please consult your cardiologist, he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Take care.
