Hey guys,
Anyone else dealing with low BP? Mine was only 94/55 or something today - totally explains the dizziness, palpitations and possibly the headaches recently. The midwife isn't overly concerned, especially as my baseline bp tends to be on the low side anyway. I do wonder how low it can get though because when they checked my bp I felt fine, but there are days I feel it's very low.
She recommended salt to help bring it up? I thought that was a little odd for a healthcare professional to recommend increasing salt intake but I have been craving salt lately and I'm ok with it! That explains why I craved (and devoured) so many salt and vinegar Pringles last night!
I hope it normalises a little because the palpitations are horrid Anyone else feeling the same? What are you doing to raise your bp?
