Low Blood Pressure
August 08, 2015 09:11AM
Hello everyone,

I am 48yr's old, HD positive since 2008 with no visible sign yet.
Apart from a weight loss of 10% and not being able to work since 2006...and extremely tired...
Now that I don' t take any medications, I have come to e conclusion that the reason of my tirenesss seems to be a very Low Blood Pressure most of the time.
When it used to be 130/70 when I was healthy in my student years, it is now closer to 90/50 (or 100/60 during good days...).
Has anyone noticed some similar values or change in value since feeling tired with HD?

Thank you!

Arnaud

Hi,
Yes, my daughter's BP is also consistently in your range and she is very tired as well...........I don't know for sure if it's
common in HD, but maybe......does anyone else know?

My daughter's blood pressure is also very low. Usually around 90/60. She is 32 and had JHD for about 15 years.
