Can anyone tell me if my blood pressure is normal? It is 90/55.?

My dad bought a blood pressure monitor. I have use it a few times and I have this reading. His is much higher than mine at 145/95.

Answer:
Hi there!
The first question is how old are you and how much do you weigh?? And are you athletic? What is your heart rate? (pulse) Do you feel dizzy? If you are thin, young and in shape and not dizzy, it is probably fine.
Your dad has what is called stage 1 hypertension and should control it soon before it damages any organs. Good luck and take care. :)
well im not too sure because i would need to know how much you weigh and how old you are, and other details which you should include. but 90/55 is low and 145/95 is slightly high. see your dr. and i recommend drink tea with sugar, it will get 90/55 a bit higher.
Your dads blood pressure is slighty high and needs attention. As far as yours, depends on your age. For an adult 90/55 is very low and that person would be passing out and weak and sleeping all the time. But for a child normal.A teen slightly low.
get off the computer and call your docter to see for sure... dont rely on ppl on the internet . heck they could TOTALLY be lieing to you!!!!
His is just a touch high (the 95 diastolic reading is a bit elevated) your B/P at 90/55 is low.
His is pretty normal, yours is low, like mine has always been.
Nothing to worry about.
sounds low really make a gp appointment tomorrow just to check
Yours is a little on the low side - but if you feel well and don't pass out easily then don't worry about it. However that reading you gave for your dad is a little too high for comfort, if it is regularly this high or more, suggest he sees his GP for a check up.

If you are still worried about yourself have a chat with your GP/GP nurse.
It seems very low. The bog standard average is 120/80. It's probably the blood pressure monitor. If you're really worried just see a doctor. They'll do a much more accurate test. If you use a home blood pressure monitor, readings should be taken first thing in the morning really, before any activity (even before getting up!)
120/80 is average. Your's is low and Dad's is high. Mine was about that high so I started monitoring my sodium (salt) intake every day. I realized that some so called healthy foods have A TON of sodium. Frozen foods, soups and sandwich meat are really high.

In one month mine has dropped from 165/95 to 145/76. I've got a little way to go. Hope I don't have to get on meds!
your dads is slightly high and yours is on slightly the low side but it maybe normal for you, my bp is always 65/40 and I'm fine no dizziness nothing my doctor tends to keep an eye on it but apart from that nothing .only problem with low blood pressure is if you have an operation or procedure with anaesthetic that can make your blood pressure drop or a large blood loss can send it even lower then you have to be given artificial fluids to bring it back up.your weight / age can also be a factor..in blood pressure ...if you are feeling light headed or prone to fainting consult your doctor .
90/55 is Normal. Systolic, (First number) Less Than 130
Diastolic, (Second number) Less tan 85. Yours is O.K.
1st No 130-139 2nd No 85-89 Is High/Normal.
1st No More than 140 2nd No More than 90 is HYPERTENSION.
yours is low, but the monitor may not be correct. See your doctor if you are concerned at all.


The ideal reading is 120/80, or as close to it as possible
