Blood pressure question

I woke up this morning with a headache. Blood pressure was 148/66 (top number is a little high) and my blood sugar level was also 66 (which is too low). I made sure to get in extra exercise today. I am on meds. I waited until this afternoon to take them because I didn't want numbers to drop too low. I will discuss this with doctor at next appointment. I was just wondering if anyone else was experiencing this.

    hello,
    are you a new to diabetes? it can happen. if it's just once in awhile i won't worry too much about it. just keep a record of strange readings and report them to your doctor on your next visit. this helps them allot. also keep track of what you did just before the readings. there could be so many reasons why you had funny readings.

    Thanks. I am not new to this illness. I had a ver stressful job that I finally gave up--retired. This morning bs was 64. I didn't take blood pressure. Things got stressful and I just had to leave home for a while.
