My average pulse rate is approximately 41 bpm.
The past four times I attempted to measure my blood pressure using both the large pharmacy grade and the personal cuff type measuring devices, the machines were unable to either systolic or diastolic pressure.
In case this is necessary information, I am 17 years old, female, 5'8", 110 lbs.

your heartrate is considerably low for a normal healthy adult.

the average healthy range for heartrate is 60-80.

your weight is also another concern-you are about 20-30 pounds under what you should be.

i would definately get seen by your doctor. the blood pressure machines you are using may not have the right size cuff for you ( i have the same problem being that i'm 5"1 and 91 pounds) and it's important to get an accurate result.

things that would warrent an emergency room visit are:
passing out
feelings of dizziness (this includes when moving postions: from sitting to standing, lying to sitting up)
extreme fatigue or sleepiness

all of the above symptoms are signs of hypotension-extreme low blood pressure.

i would call your doctor asap-the fact that your heartrate is so low maybe an indicator of a bigger problem

This is a bizarre blood pressure reading. It almost seems like the blood pressure gage wasn't working. If the gage was actually working, the readings show simultaneously blood pressure that is too low and blood pressure that is too high. This would make sense if you are dehydrated or taking some type of medication, otherwise, something is wrong. Make sure you are fully hydrated and not taking any medications and then try again. If you get the same result, it would be a good idea to see a doc.

3 years ago, I was diagnosed - hypertension with a reading of 160/100. I used to feel dizzy a lot, my legs had awful cramps, and levels were very low in my potassium, causing my fingers and toes to always cramp together. One day I started to feel really faint while I was driving with my daughter in the back seat and I passed out, hitting 3 cars and ending up in a ditch. That moment,I knew I had to do something because my meds weren't working. I heard about this diet from a friend and thought I'd give it a shot. The results have been remarkable. In just 21 days, I honestly can't remember feeling this good, my blood pressure went from 175/110 to 125/70.

It sounds like it may need to be corrected with medication if the numbers you give are, in fact accurate! I would get in to see a doctor about this right away! You might just have a low salt intake. If your blood pressure gets too low you will simply pass out! But just go get checked out. That's the smartest move at this point!

You should read "The Blood Pressure Solution" (also available in electronic format here: http://www.bloodpressuresolution.pw ) It's a very comprehensive step-by-step book that walks you through the natural remedies of high blood pressure. It provides you with a lot of information on what foods to eat, how you can acquire and prepare these foods, how you can change your lifestyle for the better, how to eliminate the toxins from your body, how to reduce stress, how you can check your blood pressure level the correct way etc.

The book is amazing in that it not only lowers your blood pressure without the help of medications; it also aids you in having a life that is healthy, happier, and less stressful. This book chanced my life.

Yes you should be worried enough to contact your doctor asap. You can actually go into a coma and die from low blood pressure. We can only give you opinions here but your Dr who have seen you and know you a lot better can give you more appropriate and accurate information.

Get a doctor or nurse to take your blood pressure, they are mor accurate. With low blood pressure you could faint and be more prone to heart attack
