108/58 BP is getting low I would talk to your Dr now about it cause if it gets much lower you may start feeling like your going to faint if your not already starting to feel some symtpom like fatigue, vission issues, dizziness,, balance issues. I really would talk to your Dr now.
Whatawoman72, He said his blood pressure is averaging 108/58. The 25 he is talking about is the medication "Hyzaar 100-25"

I think you need to go NOW and ge the blood pressure medication reviewed - 100/25 is too low.....especially the dystolic number of 25.
With the weight loss you should by the sounds of it get your blood pressure back to normal and come off medication so well done :)
Hi Ga Guy, I went from 298 in December to 254 now and I am taking the similar Angiotensin Receptor Blocker, Diovan and have been on 80 mg for the last 2 years. With the loss of 44 pounds, I too ended up with very low blood pressure and went to the doctor about it, he cut me back to 60 mg now and suggested that I take my blood pressure every day and monitor if the 60 mg is low enough or not. I do feel better now on the lower dose, but my blood pressure has been a little erratic but is still in the normal rang now as opposed to being too low.
I suggest you talk to you doctor about lowering your dose or maybe even changing medications if you plan to continue your weight loss. Congratulations by the way!
