Low blood pressure - fact or fiction?
Abstract
It is fairly common to be told by a new patient that they suffer from low blood pressure. The diagnosis had been made when the patient had consulted a doctor because of lack of energy, fatigue and other such symptoms. The patient is, in my experience, usually a female in her twenties or early thirties.
