Low blood pressure

Does anyone know anything about low blood pressure. I know high blood pressure is bad but is low blood pressure anything to be worried about?

Have low BP and tend to tire easily. Heard that low blood pressure can cause this. Is this true?

Daisy there was a thread about this a while back with a link to a website that talked about low blood pressure. I will go and have a hunt for it.

I've got low blood pressure - 90/50 - and I have to be careful when getting up from the floor but that's about it. I don't think tiredness is a side effect.

IRCC. Low BP can often mean that your body is 'immune' to thickening of the arteries. Providing you don't feel poorly with it, well done and lucky you!
