Is there such a thing as blood pressure that is too low? My blood pressure is consistently around 98/65. It seems like that would be good if I were athletic and ate a healthy diet. But, i'm about 100 lbs overweight, don't diet, and exercise very little. Does anyone know if it is normal to have low blood pressure and an unhealthy lifestyle?
