Could be thyroid. I take kidney medication that keeps my BP low. I don't mind. Have your blood checked for any possible thyroid problems, I'm sure your doctor already ordered this.....

Tommy Boy, I think your meds was what was causing your low B/P. Also, if you're real skinny, that could cause it. I had quite a low B/P when I was in my 20s, b/c I was very skinny, and didn't get enough sleep, had a stressful job that started too early in the morn.....and I smoked, but not heavily .; had just experienced my fiance' backing out of marriage. He was to back out of it a 2nd time. and the years would tell that he was a lying sociopath who never got married. Anyway, when I had a very low b/p one morning at work, the other nurses told me to drink tea.......that would raise it. So , I did. Maybe coffee or tea would keep your B/ P up. Hope all goes well.

Hi, Tom...I've just been reading about low blood pressure
and the two things that I gleaned from the article were,
some peope have low blood pressure on really hot days
and to keep well-hydrated. I'm sure your doctor will have
it sorted for you soon enough but in the mean time take it
easy.

Taking you off the meds might partly account for feeling "off" or tired but all those trips to the loo must be tiring, too. LOL
Try not to worry too much, Monday's not far off.

Sometimes the lack of excitement in life could be the cause.
Wait a minute. I just read your blood pressure. It's quite low, Tommyh.
