low blood pressure/pulse 11 months out
My blood pressure is usually about 90/60. It's not a big problem for me, though. Sometimes I get dizzy when I first stand up, because sometimes it drops when I first stand. I just have to get up slowly.
Please note: I AM NOT A DOCTOR. If you want medical advice, talk to your doctor. Whatever I post, there is probably some surgeon or other health care provider somewhere that disagrees with me. If you want to know what your surgeon thinks, then ask him or her. Check out my blog.
Before I had high blood pressure my "normal" was 100/70, my "normal" now is 90/60 like yours. My doctor is not at all concerned about it and said it had something to do with size of blood vessels and veins from when we were larger and now we are smaller and it just won't run as high. I forget the technical terms he used but that was the gyst of it.
When I had my hernia surgery at 6 months out they couldn't get my blood pressure above 75/50 no matter what they tried and they said since I wasn't dizzy they'd go ahead and release me. It was much lower when I woke up I guess they felt that was good enough. If you get dizzy standing take it slow.

anyone have problems with low blood pressure /low pulse my pulse is like 50 blood pressure like 90/60
That is better than mine, lol. I had low blood pressure before and now it is very low. I had to add sodium to my diet and learn to stand in three phases if I had been sitting for even as few as 10 minutes.

My BP is not that low, usually around 100-110/65-75. But my pulse is low, 44-48. (Prior to rny surgery my pulse was 58-65.) After having normal thyroid levels, I saw a cardiologist, who didn't find anything after a complete workup. He asked me if I felt dizzy when getting up or if my heart rate increased with activity. (my answers were no and yes). Then he told me that a pulse of 44-48 is just a number, if I'm not having any symptoms.
