I Actually Suffer From Low Blood Pressure Posted: 10-01-03 12:50pm
Hey everybody!!!!
This is my first time at this forum, but
it seems pretty cool here. I just have a
question I want to throw out there to some
people.
For some reason, I suffer from low blood
pressure. Im a tall girl, almost 6 ft,
only about 150 lbs, but my blood pressure
is normally 100 over 47 give or take a
few. I dont feel lightheaded or dizzy all
the time, but when I get sick, or if
something happens that decreases the blood
pressure, then I start to worry. I was
wondering if anyone else had this problem?
I eat properly, and I try to eat alot of
salt cause I heard that that raises the
blood pressure, but it doesnt ever raise
it by much. And also I am a smoker, and
as far as I knew that was supposed to
raise the pressure as well. Anyways, I
guess I just wanted to touch base with
someone who has this too, and see what
they have done to get the pressure up a
bit. Anyways, thanxs for your time!!!
Seeya!!! :d

Many of people have low blood pressure
,especially ,it is common among young
girls. Why ? There is no good
reasonable explains till now ,but it is
normal phenomenon except low blood
pressure happen during disease .
So you should not worry about it too
much ,don't take a lot of salt which is
not good to your health .
Other common causes of low blood
pressure include heart disease attack
,diarrhea ,fasting for a long time ,take
medicine which can decrease blood
pressure.
