What Causes Weakness And Tiredness Post Stomach Virus Infection Treatment?
I am currently on high blood pressure medicine. I recently had a stomach virus lasting 4-5 days. Still feeling weak. Today, feeling extremely tired. Took Bo readings throughout the day and it is low, 89/57, 100/77, 88/59 for example. Should I be concerned? Should intake my high bp med tomorrow ( Diovan HCT 160-12.5 mg)?

Hi,
It seems that due to viral infection and having less or light diet with less fluid intake might have caused blood pressure low.
you may avoid BP medicine for few days till in comes to normal.
Take enough water, salt, fruit juices and good nourishing diet.
Within 2-3 days toy will be alright.
Ok and take care.
