How To Control BP Ranging Around 95/55?

I had a heart attack on 23/11/2012. Two stents were put on 23/11/2012 and one more on 25/11/2012. Since than my blood pressure remains around 95/55. How long it will take before it comes back to normal? Currently I am on 100 mg Aspirin, 23.75 mg Metoprolol, 75 mg Clopidogrel dn 40 mg Atorvastatin.

Sometimes, the BP will remain low following a heart attack due to the reduced function of the heart. This is acceptable as long as you don't experience any side effects from it. Metoprolol is also another cause for low BP as it is also a blood pressure lowering medication, besides having beneficial effect on your heart following a heart attack.
