Re: question on low blood pressure

[Guest guest]

sugar, I too have low blood pressure problems. your doctor will have to do blood

work to see what the problem is. it could be your potassium level. I have to

drink salty items like chicken broth and take a potassium pill off the shelf.

but I would get your doctor to check you out as this could be scary as you know.

question on low blood pressure

Hi

sorry if this is off topic, but I need to find out something:

currently i am in tree, southern California with my parent's.

grandmother has breast cancer, and will have her left breast removed, so I

will be in charge of the drainage and etc..

well, my question is what should I do besides drink plenty of water for blood

pressure?

I checked myself and I was 54 over 41, I am orginally Chronic low blood

pressure, but maybe because I am trying to get over flu symptoms(I do not take

any shots for flu due to medications for transplants)

and i am at the last of this yukky thing, just nagging dry cough.

so any suggestions on low blood pressure and my symptoms of dizziness, and

just feeling tired?

If I go to doc. he is going to tell me to drink alot of water, since in the

past, when hospitalized, it was due to dehydration, causeing my bp to drop, so I

am doing all I can, and maybe it's all I can do, until I feel, if I feel worse,

then I'll have to go in, but I want to prevent that.

ok, sorry just wanting people's input

thanks

Sugar,

Could any of the meds you are on be causing the low blood pressure? Were

you taking any OTC meds that might lower your BP? Perhaps some water with a

little bit of salt would up the BP also?

yes, I was thinking of adding some salt to my water every now and then

no, none of my meds drop my bp, as far as I know, but i will most certainly ask

my doctor.

thanks I appreciate your input
