What Is The Reason For Having Low Body Temperature With Low BP?
My husband has had a CBC which is normal but is VERY cold all the time and his body temp today is 96.3 then 95.3. His blood pressure is 111/72 and pulse is 60. He spent some time at the gym today doing light stuff only 5 reps. He is 79, has had radiation and hormone shots for prostate cancer. It has been 3 years and the hot flashes have stopped. He has a hiatal hernia at bottom of esophagus (2 cm) and we have an appointment out of town to see a surgeon for a laser procedure to correct. Should I be concerned over the low BP and low body temp?

hai , it's great to hear that your husband running 79 years going regular gym activity. Well , this regular exercise itself would have reduced his pulse rate , 60 also addingly his core temp is low which again might bring down his heart rate and pulse rate. Obviously , BP will be low for him .
