I’ve lost some weight so apparently my blood pressure went down but I was still taking medication at its lowest it was 90/44! At th3 same time I started diabetic medication and had the most horrific side effects! At the same time I started with a chest infection! Stopped blood pressure medication and diabetic medication, took massive dosed of antibiotics and steroids! Feeling much better now! I must say I have never felt so ill in my life!

Wow that is a low reading and being on blood pressure tablets must have contributed, thankfully you had the sense to stop taking them. Glad you are feeling better now x

Hi just be careful of your blood pressure. Unfortunately some years back I ended up in a and e with blood pressure of 33/11 and was kept in for 3 days. I had lost weight and my doctor up my blood pressure pills. Turns out I had white coat syndrome when I went to doctors. Take care
