Does Stopping Alcohol Consumption Cause Low Blood Pressure Levels?
I'm 55 year old female. Have always had boarder line high blood pressure. Lots of stress last year and a half. Have drank daily forever, rarely to intoxication. Stopped drinking in October, no real issues doing that either mentally or physically. Now my blood pressure is much lower. Upper number varies from 130 down to 90. The lower number 60 to 80. Although it has dropped to 57 before. Pulse is in normal range thru all of this. Odd for me. Used to be 130/90 most of my life. Current was 93/58. Is this due to not drinking?
