Brief Answer:
BP is ok

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

Bp of 110/70 is normal this may not cause any drowsyness.

Bp reading less than 80/50 can cause giddiness.

I would consider it necessary for her to get evaluated for the real reason for drowsiness and weakness.

Low sodium levels in blood could be one such possibility.

Do consult your treating doctor and get her investigated well.

Hope, I answered your query.

Wish you good health.
