Hi, thanks for using healthcare magic
The lower limit of blood pressure is normally 90/60 mmHg. Some persons may have blood pressures slightly lower than this as their normal and have no symptoms.
Some persons may have symptoms of low blood pressure at values higher than this because they are used to higher blood pressures.
If this blood pressure is lower than her normal, and she is having related symptoms then it is too low for her.
Using fluids and a small amount of salt can bring it up.
I hope this helps
