anna Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 My son had a tilt test today they concluded No POTs but definitely Orthostatic hypotension showed up! I just have one little ? though is a BP of 102/100 a little odd?!! My son's readings were bouncing about every where but periodically showed a BP like the one I mentioned.!

corina Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 that does sound worrying to me, as sytolic and diastolic are way too close. i think your doctor will come back to you about this. best wishes to your son! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anaphylaxing Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 was that an electronic or manual? if electronic could be an error. If manual would be worth getting checked out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anna Posted November 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 Hi and thank you both, the test was done using a state of the art electronic kit, So it might well be an error Ha Ha! But son did have many very narrow pulse pressure reading so I wander! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louloutinks Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 I get narrow pulse readings like this too - I read on here that it can be part of pots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anna Posted November 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2011 It is very odd because myself and my children very often have very low pulse pressure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
