Should I Be Worried Wbout The Fluctuating Blood Pressure After Putting A Stent?
I had a stent plmt 2 wks ago. Was placed on lopressor and plavix along with Zestoretic. My pressure has been runningvery low. Lowest reading has been 77/58 which makes me feel very tired. The past 2 days it has been running higher 115/70. Should this concern me or should I give it some more time to regulate?

115/70 is quite acceptable. Any lower than that, you anti hypertensive would have to be stopped.
I think lopressor is not suitable for you. It would be better to meet your physician in person and have him evaluate you.
