Today I took my blood pressure at a local Rite aid and it came out 98 / 65. Now i'm just wondering if that's bad or if its normal? what could that mean? anything? please tell me what you think. thank you Im 21 and im on no medication but i have been on my period and i have been having pain in my neck Im pretty sure its not my normal im pretty sure when i usually go to the doc its 120/ something
R Mbeal - i agree with "Ur boi" normally bp is within 120-125 / 80. 98/65 is very low. are you taking anti coagulants or have a heart condition? people with low bp are prone to fainting. those commercial ones on stands are not calibrated half the time giving inaccurate readings. its best to have it assessed by a Professional with a calibrated blood pressure monitor.
yyyyzz (wise) - Very low!!! Didn't the assistant give you some advice or recommendation? Very funny.

Normal: 120/80
ur boi - 2nd year med student: normal is 120/80 but u took it in one of those machines probably dont trip those arent accurate

Tigger - It's low, but don't worry about it if it is your normal. Ideal is 120/80...
