Blood pressure of 103/61, is that low?

Question

???

Answer 1

There is an upper limit for what is defined as "high blood pressure", but there's no cut off for what is defined as "low blood pressure". The reason is everyone's bodies act differently. For example, 103/61 might be perfectly normal for one person, whereas someone else might pass out from that blood pressure being too low for them. If you're not having any symptoms or side effects from it (such as dizziness, fainting, fatigue, etc) then it's not low. However, if you ARE having side effects like those, then yes, it is low. If you are having side effects, there is medication that the doctor can give you to increase your blood pressure (I'm on some for that reason actually- my blood pressure was running at about 80/57 and I was having side effects).

Answer 2

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.

Hey hun, my blood pressure is normally around 105/65 and every time i go to the docs he says its perfect at that level. I tend to get a bit light headed sometimes but you just need to be sensible and not get up too quickly or have showers that are too hot. Just think when you get older and all your friends have high blood pressure you won't, you'll be normal. :)

Answer 4

well the depends on your age. if your young it is good. if an adult it is a little low. just moniter it. one reading is not enough to be sure what the normal range is. as long as your not having an symptoms of low pressure such as fainting or dizzyness or lightheadness or weakness in your legs when you get up or walk. no symptoms your probably okay. if mine was that low I would go into a coma. but I need higher pressure to deal with my higher weight and other problems.
