Answer 1

A blood pressure of 90/60 mmHg is very NORMAL for a 40 year-old housewife. That indicates that you are not currently at risk for complications of hypertension (high blood pressure).
If you want to reduce your risks for cardiovascular disease, the cholesterol and weight are areas that can be improved.

Your blood pressure is unlikely to be the cause of your fatigue, unless you also have orthostasis: your blood pressure drops and heart rate increases when you stand up from a lying position. This can be caused by being dehydrated (not drinking enough) or by certain diseases, but also many otherwise healthy people have this. Low blood pressure in an otherwise healthy person is NOT a risk factor for any disease.

Blood pressure can be increased by drinking more fluids, being more liberal with the use of salt, and exercising more. There are also some medications that can be used if your doctor thinks that this blood pressure is too low for you and can be responsible for some of your symptoms.

Answer 3

90 60 Blood Pressure

Answer 4

do you mean 90/60? Low blood pressure can make you feel real tired. You should try to get up and do a few exercises - it may help to get the blood pressure up. Do you take any medications that could be lowering your BP? I have low BP too. Some people just run a little low. Keep your eye on it and if it gets too much lower, I would suggest going to a doctor but for a bp of 90/60 I wouldn't panic. Good luck!

Answer 5

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.

Answer 6

I think you mean 90/60, the top number is never lower than the bottom. That is not an alarming BP, but, it may be low for you. The bottom number is the number to really watch. What does your BP normally run? Mine is usually 100/64, always been that way. But, if you are feeling abnormally tired than you should seek advice from a medical professional. Have you been sick? Even a cold or the flu will run your system down and make you feel fatigued. Without proper medical assessment, it is hard to say what is causing it, if anything, it may just be normal for you.

Answer 7

Yeah, it's gotta be 90/60-doesn't work the other way. I've seen people with a pressure that low, and it can be normal for them, though it's low normal. What's more important is how you feel. If you are a diabetic with high cholesterol, you are at higher risk for heart attacks. Even at your age. Fatigue that is new and extreme could be a sign of heart trouble, and you should go check it out.

You should read "The Blood Pressure Solution" (also available in electronic format, watch the video presentation here: http://www.fixbloodpressure.com ) 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.

Answer 9

Blood pressure cuff malfunction. The top # is your systolic pressure (when your heart is beating). The bottom # is your diastolic pressure (when your heart is resting- between beats) Your systolic is always higher than your diastolic (unless your dead, then they are both zero). If your Bp is really 90/60 - good for you, some people are lucky to have low Bp provided they are not symptomatic eg. lightheaded, dizzy....

Bring your cuff with you to your next office appointment & check it at the same time it is checked in the office.

Good luck.

90 over 60 and you feel tired with little effort. as in shortness of breath? lightheaded? have you been on a new medication? you need to go get a cardiac work up done. 90/60 isn't too low unless it is accompanied by symptoms such as yours. what's your heart rate, rhythm and quality?
