Low Blood Pressure

[Jasper]

Hi
My BP has been running real low.  Like 85/58.  When low like this I cannot even drive my car.
I have to rest each afternoon.  From 12noon to 4pm it is low and then around 5pm it goes up to around 100/65.
The doctors seem stumped.
Anyone know about this?
Thanks Jasper

Well, I'm not sue, but I HOPE you stopped ALL BP medications?   

My BP runs 165/110 and I eat BP meds like candy!  I don't know what is going on, but it can't keep going like this!

Sometimes Rerun our body after so many years will reject our blood pressure meds and we have to try different ones. I suggest that you ask your doctor to let you try something else.

Jasper,

Yeah one day last week my pressure got as low as 50/30 I was scared shitless and I had NO symptoms. Weird huh? After about 1200 cc's of Saline  it finally went back up to about 100/80.

Thanks Epoman.  She did perscribe Enalapril 10mg along with the other two that I'm taking.  She said it may take 7 to 10 days to take affect.  I'm starting to see black spots in my puerperal vision.  I'm a little scared, but then I think......Who cares?  I live on a freaken machine to live!!

Jasper, dont take any BP meds, and try putting your dry weight up a bit. Start with a couple of kg, and see how you go. I have had this trouble recently. I put my dry weight up a few kilos and it subsided. I am now bringing my dry weight back down by 200ml each treatment, until my BP is normal.
