Low blood pressure symptoms: Signs include dizziness or feeling sick

Blood Pressure UK says if your blood pressure is naturally low, this probably won’t cause you any problems and won’t need treatment.

“In fact, the lower your blood pressure, the lower your risk of heart disease and stroke.”

The health body says low blood pressure, and low blood pressure when you stand up, can be caused by medications.

It adds: “Diabetes can affect the normal control of blood pressure because it can affect your hormones and the nerves leading to your blood vessels. If the nerves are affected your blood pressure might drop when you stand up because your blood vessels can’t adjust to the new position quickly enough.”
