Does BP Reading Of 111/59 While Having Diabetes Imply Low BP?
I had my blood pressure taken this morning as part of a diabetic review. The reading was 111/59. the nurse said it was lowish and asked if I ever felt dizzy when standing up suddenly. She implied that I could be suffering from low blood pressure. Is this a problem? I am 65 yrs old.
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, there is not like low blood pressure disease but this is kind of condition which demands the immediate medical attention, in your case this is not the hypotension and this is nothing to worry, hope this information helps, take care.
