Low Blood Pressure

Posted By Nancy on December 14, 1998 at 10:18:42:







Hi....I have a question on Low blood pressure.  I have heard it is good but how low can it go before it causes a problem and why would blood pressure lower.  I went to the doctor yesterday for a buise on my leg that appeared for no reason, he took my blood pressure, it was 77/44, pulse was 106.  He then took it again and it was the same.  When this happens I get a constant pain in the heart but when the blood pressure elevates the pain goes away.  So my question is, how low can it go before it causes a problem and why would this occur for no reason?   Thank you for any information you can give me.
P.S.- I have been diagnosed with SVT for many years now.  My heart will race itself at speeds of 200 to 250 beats per minutes.
