Please go to your doctor. Tell him about your low BP. Last time I was in the hospital they put me in ICU for low BP. My cardio knows mine goes low, but the people at the hospital told me when mine is low that blood and oxygen is not getting to my organs or brain, and it could be dangerous.

Many things can cause it, but with a heart, you have to be safe.

I had a heart attack a couple years ago and did not know that is what it was til my heart went totally out several months later. All I felt was in the middle of the night I woke up to pee and it felt like someone hit me across the face (left jaw) with a baseball bat. I was still groggy from sleeping and it just shocked me. I thought my jaw went out. (dislocated) So, please be careful with you ! ! Adrenal fatigue is one thing that can affect your heart. and yeast/fungus can cause heart palps.

Hi Dede,

No, I haven't been checked for anything and haven't told anyone about my pressure. I take it at home and have only done recently since I was in hospital.

Last week I was having a strange feeling. When I woke up, I felt short of breath and like someone was lying on my chest!! Thanks for the advice.

Love

Are you being treated for your heart? How often is your BP that low? Please read this..........( I am a heart patient) I am not trying to scare you, but please be checked if you havent......

Low Blood PressureWithin limits, the lower your blood pressure reading is, the better. In most people blood pressure isn't too low until it causes symptoms such as lightheadedness or fainting. In certain conditions or disease states, blood pressure can become too low, as in these examples:

certain nervous system disorders (orthostatic hypotension, autonomic failure)

endocrine disorders (parathyroid disease)

heart attack and heart failure prolonged bed rest fainting (syncope) (SIN'ko-pe) decreases in blood volume due to severe bleeding (hemorrhage) or dehydration effects of certain drugs severe infections (sepsis) shock

Normal blood pressure with respect to cardiovascular risk is less than 120/80 mm Hg. Unusually low readings should be evaluated to rule out medical causes.

and read this site:Introduction: Low Blood Pressure: Merck Manual Home Edition

Symptoms

When blood pressure is too low, the first organ to malfunction is usually the brain. The brain malfunctions first because it is located at the top of the body and blood has to fight gravity to reach the brain. Consequently, most people with low blood pressure feel dizzy or light-headed when they stand, and some may even faint. People who faint fall to the floor, usually bringing the brain to the level of the heart. As a result, blood can flow to the brain without having to fight gravity, and blood flow to the brain increases, helping protect it from injury. However, if blood pressure is low enough, brain damage can still occur.

Low blood pressure occasionally causes shortness of breath or chest pain due to an inadequate blood supply to the heart muscle (angina).

All organs begin to malfunction if blood pressure becomes sufficiently low and remains low; this condition is called shock (see Shock).

The disorder causing low blood pressure may produce many other symptoms, which are not due to low blood pressure itself. For example, an infection may produce a fever.

Some symptoms occur when the body's compensatory mechanisms try to increase blood pressure that is low. For example, when arterioles constrict, blood flow to the skin, feet, and hands decreases. These areas may become cold and turn blue. When the heart beats more quickly and more forcefully, a person may feel palpitations (awareness of heartbeats).

Some Causes of Low Blood Pressure

Change in Compensatory Mechanism

Causes

Decrease in cardiac output

Abnormal heart rhythms Heart muscle damage or malfunction (such as that due to a heart attack or viral infection) Heart valve disorders Pulmonary embolism

Dilation of blood vessels

Alcohol Some antidepressants, such as amitriptyline Antihypertensive drugs that dilate blood vessels (such as calcium channel blockers, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, and angiotensin II receptor blockers) Nitrates Bacterial infections Exposure to heat Nerve damage (such as that due to diabetes, amyloidosis, or spinal cord injuries)

Decrease in blood volume

Diarrhea Diuretics (such as furosemide and hydrochlorothiazide) Excessive bleeding Excessive sweating Excessive urination (a common symptom of untreated diabetes or 's disease)

Inhibition of the brain centers that control blood pressure

Alcohol Antidepressants Antihypertensives such as methyldopa and clonidine Barbiturates

Impairment of the autonomic nervous system

Amyloidosis Diabetes Multiple systems atrophy (Shy-Drager syndrome) Parkinson's disease

Dede - I went into hospital as I woke up early hours of the morning with severe stomach pains. These pains started from as low down as my ovaries and went as high as my chest. They were so intense I was crawling around the floor and did not know what to do with myself.

They put me on a drip for 24 hours, water only to drink then as I was still in pain when they examined my abdomen, they also added antibiotics.

They never said what it was exactly but thought I had an infection in my colon.

I didn't have any tests done.

They let me home 5 days later.

Its very difficult here to follow things up. As I am a private patient, I do not have a GP like I had in the UK (I live in the Canary Islands). If I have anything wrong, I usually see a specialist in any particular field i.e. Bone specialist, skin specialist.

After nine years of skin specialists (itching and burning in my arms) I got fed up and do not go anymore. My neck problem began after my explant. One doctor said I had a damaged vertebrae (he thought) so I went to see the bone specialist.

He sent me for an Xray. He said it was osteoporosis. Who knows. I did think though that it was damage as they kind of threw me around during the operation!! They are not exactly courteous here either, when I was taken back to my room after explant, my Sister was waiting in the room and was horrified to find me naked and shaking from head to foot. She grabbed a blanket and covered me with it. - that's just an example of what we are up against here. My Spanish isn't very good either, which doesn't help.

Thank you for all the info. I will read it in the morning. Right now it is after midnight and I need to get some sleep. I am seeing a Chiropractor in the morning. At least he is English so might like me!!! Lol

Thanks again Dede,

Love

Do you get white, or light colored patches on your skin that itch usually sort of round and usually get them in the warmer months?See what's free at AOL.com.

Honey, I am so fed up with skin specialists. 9 years they have tried to sort out this itching. Only one doctor recently said it could be fungi and gave me some cream and some gel to shower in. He never mentioned anything about yeast infections, or tablets or anything else come to that.

It is so strange it is on my arms only. The doctor only thought it was fungi as the skin around my thumbs is always dry and my hands seem to be dehydrated. He didn't actually say anything specific about my arms. Its such a miserable mystery.

Lots of love,

.

, thank you for all of this information. Honey, it might not be a yeast infection, it could be something else. The itching is a mystery to me, I wish that you would see your doctor.

Love you lots too..........Lea
