Is Low BP While Suffering From Pneumonia A Cause For Concern?
Question: My wife is resting with Phenoumia and is taking a prescribe script. She is still very weak after seening a Med Check RN She also is on a pacemaker, 65 yo and 127lbs. Her blood pressure I just took is 114/ 77 I know this is low. Im need to know if I need to get her to immediate care now . She is scheduled to see her doctor Monday morning? Thank you
Brief Answer:
blood pressure is okay
Detailed Answer:
Hello and thank you for your question.
Normal blood pressure is less than 120/80 so her blood pressure is quite good. Pneumonia can make you very weak for quite some time. Unless she is feeling very sort of breath or has a very high fever then I think she can wait until tomorrow morning to see her doctor.
I hope she is better soon.
Regards,
Dr. Robinson
