Hi,I just had Chiari 1 decompression surgery (3 weeks ago). for the past 5 days my bp has been low but with an elevated pulse.  Example: 69-50 p 90.  I went to the doctor.  I felt well but tired.  Previous to the surgery I had been taking lisinopril (5 mg) for borderline high blood pressure.  I have now been tested for anemia.  It could be deydration.  Should I be worried.  It would be great if I didnt have to take medication any more.  I am not taking it now.Thanks,
Hello, First, is it a systolic or diastolic BP. If it's a diastolic meaning lower BP then it's fine, no need to worry. But if it's a systolic one then you need to rush to doctor. You should monitor your blood pressure, BP may rise to previous level after you initiate your daily activities.  Pulse rate is not very much elevated, get one hemoglobin checked and if normal then thyroid test.
