Low blood pressure

Hmmm same here... never had low pressure but seems to happen quite a lot through treatment etc. Good advice from Moomy.. thanks

I often have low blood pressure. Usually in the 89s and 90, sometimes it goes even lower.  I ended up in the hospital Tuesday because my blood pressure dropped I blacked out. Fell to the ground and somehow broke both my tibia and fibula. I had surgery by 9am and now have a steal rod in the Center of my tibia.  They said the fibula would heal without doing anything. I have 20 staples.  10 directly on the knee, 5 on the tibia near the near and 5 on my inside ankle.  Been home two days no cast just crutches. I see an Occupational therapist and a physiotherapist next week sometime. My low blood pressure I believe is directly related to my Mantle Cell Lymphoma. 

take care. 

Good grief. Do take care and get better soon.

Hi , so sorry to hear this and I do hope that you heal well and can get about as best as you can.

I have lived with low-ish blood pressure all the way through my last 6 years of treatment but have developed an ability to recognise when it’s low and take precautions.

It’s scary when you drop like a brick and the times that this happened I fortunately have landed safely every time.

Stay safe and stay connected. 

Last time I had it checked the Nurse said have you always had low blood pressure ?

As it's something I don't check myself how would I know.

Yes I also get dizzy if I bend down quickly and also get light headed sometimes.

But I have never been the sort to go to the Doctors over every niggle.

It's bad enough when you have something serious.

Hi again  how much water are you drinking in a day?........I am on strick orders to drink at least 3-4Lts a day and the days I am not doing this I find my BP is lower...... but it’s so frustrating to have to get up during the night for the loo
