When the BP goes down the pulse is going to go up to compensate. If the top # is below 100, and she is not feeling well you should call her doctor, go to the Emergency Room, or call an ambulance.

Answer 2

she probably gets nervous before she takes it take it once and try again 5 minutes later. I do the samething. Most of the time though hypertension has now symptoms. And no syptoms are visible. The main symptom for extreme hypertension is a headache behind the eyes and nausea, but only a small percentage of those who have hypertension experience those symptoms.

Answer 3

COULD BE. PLEASE HAVE HER SEE A DOCTOR. IS SHE OBESE? HAVE EXISTING HEALTH PROBLEMS? PLEASE GET HER CHECKED OUT.

Answer 4

She might have low BP, but just gets stressed out at the doctor's office, and that gets her pulse racing. Maybe get a BP machine for at home and take a reading when she's relaxed. But I'm NOT a doctor, so please ask a physician you trust if she does not feel well.

Answer 5

could be consult a physician

Answer 6
