I recently went to the doctors & when he took my blood pressure, he looked puzzled & did it again then he told me that I have very low blood pressure. I asked if it was bad & he said "well it's not good" and that was the end of it.
I am worried now, is low blood pressure bad?? what can i do to raise it if anything?
Thanks

I think it depends how low. It is a mite bit strange that he/she would say that and leave it at that. There's a few other threads on here on low blood pressure that you can read to get more insight. The general consensus would be that you're in a enviable position.

Yep - agree about the envy part :) I don't think low blood pressure is a problem unless you have side-effects from it... sluggishness, fainting & stuff, ya know? I know that throughout my pregnancy, my BP averaged 90/60 & I even clocked a few 90/55's. That's pretty low, but it didn't bother me any.

If YOU feel ok, then don't worry about it!! Low blood pressure is a good thing ;)
