Narrow pulse pressure

As I have a tilt test scheduled for this week I thought it could be useful to get some resting blood pressure measurements at home beforehand. This morning when I woke up I felt a bit 'odd' so checked my BP & measured 95/92 with pulse rate 49. The diastolic reading slowly dropped over the next 1/2 hr to a more usual (for me) 97/66. What's going on here then??

Hopefully the tilt table test will explain it! Mention it to your cardiologist too. Hope you're okay!
