I've been super dizzy, lightheaded and tired today. Just had my BP checked, and it was 105/51, which seems kind of low for a guy my size. I take Toprol XL for high BP, but have not taken it today.

For you medical types, does 105/51 seem low for a big guy. I carry a lot of muscle mass.

    If your BP it that low, DO NOT take your BP meds, go and see your GP. they may need to lower your dose, of even come off the meds completly. weight loss will lower your BP to within normal ranges so well done.

    Thanks for replying... not planning to take today's dose since I'll be doing 3.5 miles on an elliptical after work today. Am seeing my doctor tomorrow afternoon for a monthly check in.
