Should I Be Worried?

[April_Rose]

I found out a little while ago that I have lower blood pressure than I should and so far I've only been feeling a bit of dizziness in the head especially after getting up. I'm pretty sure it's not that serious because the doctor would have told me if it was,.. but not sure why I have been feeling the dizziness though. :/

Getting up too quickly does not help. The heart has to work a bit harder to get the blood up to your head. I used to suffer a bit. I don't rush to get up so much now.

I'm not a medical professional, but I believe low blood pressure can cause you to pass out if it gets too low. This could cause you to hit your head on a hard surface. If the doc didn't prescribe anything to you then it's probably not low enough to worry about. I think dehydration can lower your blood pressure so be sure to drink plenty of water throughout the day.

Well I do drink lots of water throughout the day. I need to since I don't have a lot of fiber in my diet and I've had constipation issues before that led me into the ER back before I knew what it was. (Prunes, fiber gummies, and stool softeners helps this as well though.)

I also go to bed late and wake up late not sure if that has anything to do with it. And due to the pandemic I'm not really getting out as much as I used to although I do exercise a bit every day.

Definitely double check with your provider. Don’t feel like you can’t ask to make sure you get all your answers clear and explained properly. I too have felt light headed and nauseous when getting up too quickly.

That's another thing. Every other day I seem to have pain in my head that gets worse and worse and I wind up vomiting at night afterwards. Not really sure if that goes together with low blood pressure or not though.

That sounds like migraine.

Yeah,.. but can migraines be a symptom of low blood pressure? And I'm very well aware of the fact that I get migraines, but I've seemed to be getting them rather frequently lately.

I had lower than normal blood pressure growing up and would get a little dizzy and almost black out if I was relaxed and got up too quickly. When you accelerate upwards from rest your blood is pulled from your head and your heart has to pump it back up there again. As for pain in your head I don't think low blood pressure has anything to do with that I would have it looked at could be something else going on there possibly serious.
I no longer have low blood pressure in fact I'm struggling not to have high blood pressure as I get older.

I'm not sure about that one. If I remember correctly, migraines are caused by your serotonin levels, but you'd have to ask a doc about that one.

 

[April_Rose]

With all the sweets I eat and not the healthiest diet in the world,.. I'm actually rather surprised I don't have high blood pressure to tell you the honest truth.

In in my 60's and always had fairly low blood pressure. They said when I was younger as I got older it would adjust upwards and it has. Now my blood pressure is in the perfect range.

If you don't mind me asking you,.. how old were you when they told you that?

In my twenties.

 

[April_Rose]

In my twenties.

Alright well I'm currently thirty for the record.

 

[Bobber]

What I mean in my twenties they told me I had fair low blood pressure. All through the years I knew this plus my doctors knew it to. They assured me though when I'd get older it'd naturally get higher. So in a way you could say there was a benefit of having it a little bit low.

Bathe yourself in the morning sun. May be that the vitamin D you need in your blood.
