LOW Blood pressure

Posted By Mike on October 16, 1998 at 10:08:17:







For the past nine months I have been dealing with a variety of health issues...I am a cancer survivor (adenocarcinoma in l99l -- tumor removed, 36 subsequent radiation treatments).  Since then, my immune system seems depleted to where I am susceptible to most colds and viruses floating around.
I contracted a severe case of shingles on the right side of my head in late l99l.  In late l997, I developed shingles-like symptoms on the left side of my head (where the radiation was), but no out break of blisters.  The resulting symptoms are extreme pain on the left side of my head and extreme fatigue.  I have had 2 MRIs and 3 blood tests with no abnormal results.
It feels like I have the flu all the time, with no fever...achy all over and no energy.  I did come down with a cold/flu earlier this week and during the examination, my blood pressure was 77/59.  When I went to the pharmacy for the antibiotics, my blood pressure was 80/54.
I would like to restart an exercise program as I have always been active, but don't seem to have enough energy to do so.  I am a 43 year old male.  Any thoughs would be highly appreciated.
