Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Irritating bouts of fatigue. On those days I take too many naps my blood pressure can be as low at 88/48. Yes, I am an athlete--55-years-old. A workout seems to get me going, for a while. Blood pressure has always been low, but this low? And is it the reason for the naps?
All of these symptoms can be caused by hypothyroidism, sleep apnea, depression, anxiety, cancers, or viral illnesses. Therefore, the answer is not easy. I would recommend getting screened by a medical professional with blood work, EKG, and sleep study.
