When you get a blood pressure reading, your doctor is measuring the pressure of the blood within your arteries and circulatory system because it's closely related to the health of your heart. Your blood pressure is produced primarily by the contraction of the heart muscle, or heartbeat, and it helps your doctor diagnose not only the force and rate of the heartbeat, but also and the diameter and elasticity of the arterial walls. The first, higher number is called the systolic pressure, and is measured after the heart contracts and and pressure is highest. The second number is called the diastolic number and is measured before the heart contracts and pressure is lowest.
The readings in the following charts display what medical professionals consider to be normal blood pressure by age, for both men and women.
Is your blood pressure normal for your age? Are you experiencing symptoms that might have high blood pressure. Feel free to leave a comment below.

After working in medicine for 47 years, I have often heard, and repeated, that at age 90.....any blood pressure is acceptable!! I would give my patients additional wisdom: Do not let it ever go to zero!!
Advice well taken!!
@davebrucher2283 ~ Humor In Medicine Is A Miracle Maker! (But you already know that.) Love Love Love that you say that to your patients. Surely they must love you for it! And I'll always remember you ~ It's very clever and wise. Guaranteed to put smiles on patient's faces.
Thank you. This type of common sense is so missing in today's medical practice. Folks would come in asking for MRI scans ($2000) for a simple, self limiting condition like a sprain. They saw it on TV!! Providers need to be able to state why each test is needed, what the cost is, what the alternatives are as well as ask them what the patient would do with the information. And we wonder why health care is so expensive!@@nancysilverman495
I thank the Lord with every beat of my heart and every breath I take ...yep and Amen.
Amen 🙏 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️
So..... you never take medical treatment?
@@kedharisivashankar9905 I have an Aortic valve of an anonymous cow... what do you think? And I thank the Lord for that for sure!... yep and Amen.🙏✝
I am 78 and have a reading of 121/74. So I am happy with that. I do keep pretty active.
Do you take any medications daily to keep the reading that low?
good for you , you are doing something right !
@@histubeness No, I just watch what I eat and drink and stay busy.
I'm 69 and my blood pressure read 111/68, at the doctor's office today. Best reading I've had in years. Seems like my blood pressure is getting lower as I get older. Hope it's not gonna get so low that I just stop. And then again maybe that's the best way to go.
BP varies from 180 to 140,, been told I am suffering from heart failure. 72 years on this planet, and most of them have been great. Thought I'd test the heart out, got on my 30 YO mountain bike and went for a cycle. 35 kilometers later, and having to walk up a few hills, I arrived home , felt pretty good, and improved as each day passed. A few more cycles, and life is great...
No tightness in the upper chest, no chest/neck pain? Why did the MD say you had heart failure? EKG results? Just curious as I'm 75 and last year I got moderate shortness of breath and tightness in my upper chest and neck just walking up my driveway (it's on a slope). A few weeks later, my wife and I were in a super market and I had to stop after a couple of minutes walking. Went to the local ER after that and was referred to a cardiologist. Then a heart catheterization that showed 3 coronary arteries blocked 95% and then open heart surgery with a triple bypass this past October. I'm doing great now.
I wouldn't push the exercise too vigorously and definitely not biking in an isolated area. JMHO Cheers, Bob

They are CREATING FEAR TO THE PUBLIC to buy their products.
We are not all the same. We've known of people who were cigarette smokers from their early years and into their eighties and nineties. Blood pressure is important, I'm certain, but there are many conditions, many factors to living well, living longer.
@@rvnmedic1968 That's interesting, I had a shortness of breath episode also, that gave me a bit of a fright one night, and I googled it , with the end result I took myself off to the ER, where a doctor recommended highly that I needed the heart given a jolt to get it back to normal pace. Have since been advised the heart has gone back to it's old ways, and am off for another jolt next week. Apparently they do it with electric shock treatment. Will be interesting to see what happens this time. Still cycling, and it's funny that I feel better after cycling. Think I have the Docs a bit puzzled. LOL.
If it wasn't for blood pressure and cholesterol medicine, the big pharmacy CEOs couldn't afford that second yacht. Both recommended numbers keep getting lower with time as profit from sales goes up!
Perfectly put I must agree with you it’s all about how much they can make from someone by telling them what they can and can’t do
Could be... however if you value your ass you need to keep those numbers at Doc's recommended levels and in this day and age its a lot easier to do that with the plethora of meds available today. Here's the thing. IF you're predisposed to have wacked numbers attempting to get them under wraps is much better than no attempt (regardless of knocks on big pharma).
@@leecowell8165 let's assume a person has high blood pressure. Research has found that for 99.9% if you make changes to your lifestyle (lose weight, eat better, exercise ) the blood pressure will become normal or take a pill to lower the blood pressure. Most people take the pill, without though to the possible side affects. People always look for the easy way out.
Meds pills is not the answer. New was.😅@@leecowell8165
@@leecowell8165 my cardiologist totally disagrees with these charts. My mother had high blood pressure all her life, refused the meds because of the terrible side effects. Unfortunately she died when she was 94.
Before all the blood pressure meds were handed out like candy, the rule was 100 plus your age. Really it varies from person to person , personality/ temperament and even the time of day when the reading is taken.
You're exactly right. Wanna know what your BP should be? Ask Pfizer. Or, any doctor that receives kick backs for prescribing their new BP meds
Plus the time of year. It's always lower in the summer
Ridiculous statement
100%
That’s what I learned in nursing school in the UK, 100 plus your age. Now 120 over 80 is called pre hypertensive whatever your age!
I can take my BP 20 times a day and all the readings will be different. From personal experience when my BP is higher I have lots of energy and drive. If it is low, I am sleepy unwilling to do anything. They want everyone to be on BP meds...
Amen to that . I'm 81 and it depends when and where I have my BP checked . "They" say smokers have smaller veins which restrict blood flow so their BP may be different from non smokers . My BP 'average' is about 140/80 but varies depending on my state of mind , how much exercise I do , or how much coffee is in my system . And at 81 I will enjoy that apple pie , coffee and fries because I enjoy some forbitten fruit occasionally . And never smoked .
There's a prescribed method of taking your reads. It's totally unnecessary to take it several times/day. However under precise controlled conditions the AVERAGE is what counts. Over time it needs to be... systolic 100-120 diastolic 60-80 and it does NOT MATTER HOW OLD YOU ARE once you become an adult! This generally means that the older you manage to become the more overall meds you're likely gonna have to be prescribed to maintain those AVERAGE numbers. Remember its the AVERAGING that counts and that's why you should be keeping a log. I take an average read every 4-7 days at various times of the day under the same (recommended) methodology as instructed by your pressure monitor or physician. BTW way too many physicians are in too much of a hurry to take it properly so its up to YOU to question it!
@@leecowell8165 Since I got BP monitor as a gift, I had fun with it. I was taking my BP from the time I got up, to the time I hit the bed...Even at night if I had to make a bathroom trip. EVERY measurement was different...I kept a spread sheet. On the average I'd say my BP is 120-75. At this point I can say with certainty if my BP is up or down. I learned how to recognize it. I stopped worrying about it...Regarding the BP in older people, they have to account for blood vessels being less flexible, and more stiff...and as such certainly affect the blood flow and the heart efficacy. In other words, age should play in BP monitoring.
@@leecowell8165 WRONG!!!!!!
It's your resting blood pressure that's the important one. Sit at the dining room table for at least 10 minutes, arm out straight on the table to get it at the same height as your heart. Feet apart and flat on the floor and no moving or talking when taking a BP
Male Age: 69 BP 125/67 Pulse rate: 60 - 65. Healthy as a horse and grateful!

😂😂😂😂😂😂..MINE TOO
Absolutely
In all this discussion, nobody is saying what naturally regulates blood pressure. If I recall well, there are three centres of control that contribute to the regulation of blood pressure for the optimum functioning of the body. All three work synchronously to give that pressure. Doctors try to regulate one and ignore the other two since this is a difficult balancing act. Their first line of attack is a diuretic medication to thicken the blood (some people call them 'water' tablets since they cause them to urinate more), but that causes two problems: the heart has to work harder and the blood does not flow as freely in all the capillaries. So, another medication is prescribed to thin the blood (which the opposite of the first one), so taking two medications leaves you where you began. So, there is a third medication, etc. This is why high BP medication involves more than one type of medications. When all is considered, slightly more people die from high BP medication that those who did not take the medications. But doctors insist in the prescription to satisfy the patients and the requirements of standard medical practice (to avoid being sued for malpractice), patients see a lowering in pressure and think it is well worth the costs, AND Big Pharma is quite happy to have millions hooked on their drugs. PLUS, even if some doctors recommend lifestyle changes first, most people are too lazy for that and prefer a quick-fix of tablets. But the first line of defense should be life-style changes (e.g. no alcohol, tobacco and refined sugars, a vegetarian or even pescatarian diet with adequate soluble and insoluble fibre, regular moderate exercise, drink adequate water - one-half ounce to every pound of body weight, 7-8 hours of sleep per night with two hours of that before mid-night, etc.). If people would only follow some simple health rules, about 85% to 90 % of sickness (that they bring upon themselves) will be eliminated. Live a healthy lifestyle and let the body adjust the blood pressure to what it sees best. DISCLAIMER: This is just my considered opinion.

But why do I hear those children's cries?
Don’t worry too much about the numbers guys ! Eat well , don’t worry about things that haven’t happened yet , take time for yourself and Enjoy the journey ! 🌻
Those number games were designed to make money by getting people to take drugs. Those drugs create health problems.
If sudden death is the only thing caused by high BP, what you say is correct. But, do you know that it may cause any permanent damage like loss of eye sight, paralysis, failure of organs, severe headaches, etc. Would you like to live with these and be a burden to your family? No, you won’t. Prevention is better than cure.
@@diwakaranvalangaimanmani3777
Prevention is best. BUT!
Those numbers are still not important if you are active and eat right. They are a scare tactic scam to sell more drugs.
Just the thought of taking blood pressure readings can raise it 20 points. And even more if done by medical staff. The only accurate test would be to monitor constantly throughout 24 hours.
@@diwakaranvalangaimanmani3777.....yep. Get that sorted, live beyond your threescore years and ten and then start getting cancer , diabetes , arthritis, dementia and watch your whole life savings go down the pan on old people's homes where you can see out your days, dribbling, farting and being a neverending burden on your family. But you'll have great blood pressure readings.
Ha, not my style, if I fall of a tall building I would like to deal with that before the sidewalk. I’m a healthy 76 year old and do worry about stuff a lot.
The Dr keeps frightening the life out of me but these comments confirm that I'm normal for my age and weight.
Some doctors believe the numbers aren't as important as we are lead to believe.The overall health of the person is also very important.The way some doctors take your blood pressures gives an inaccurate reading and some patients are taking unnecessary medication.I'm 68 years old now, when I was 25 a doctor diagnosed me with high blood pressure and put me on meds.At 28 I changed doctors who took my blood pressure correctly and took me off meds.Some people have White coat syndrome,and their blood pressure is elevated at a doctors office.A persons blood pressure is constantly changing depending on what the person is doing.
Blood pressure has nothing to do with your body health if it's not associated with other challenges like diabetes, heart diseases and the like. I am 66 years old, my is always 170/90 , body weight above 87 kilograms, height 1.94 metres, no body health challenges at all. I changed life style by stopping consuming all processed foods, alcohol and juices, red meats, sugar, fine salt and others. Now I eating natural foods, fruits, vegetables, more water, various fish, various exercise. No body health challenges at all.
Yes there is a very good you tube from heart cardiologist from the UK, cant recall the link, but he states its not about numbers at all, its about risk factors, ie smoking, lifestyle etc. that makes sense. I recently talked to a young friend of mine, very fit, good diet no smoking etc put on statins because his BP was 125/80. Told by his Dr to go on these meds and he is 40 years of age. Wow, big pharma I say.
@@brentpope100 A doctor who takes your blood presure and perscribes meds.if it's high is like prescribing meds for a headache without checking for a brain tumor. Don't treat the symptom FIND THE CAUSE.!!
Exactly. I tell my PCP that I need to be SITTING AT REST for at least 15 minutes before he takes a read. that's the proper way to administer the test.
@@leecowell8165 The doctor that took me off meds.for high BP.said if a BP reading is taken right away then at the end of the appointment the last one is usually lower.Why do alot of doctors still take BP readings first.The most accurate reading is a 24 hr. monitor.
Just live your life without worrying what the hell might happen, but might not! No,one dies a healthy way, so just live your life! when ya done, ya done!
As a biomedical equipment technician I've had access to Dinamaps (Electronic BP reader) since the late 1970's. My BP always ran high (above 140/80). Some people just run higher. My PCP was always overtly aggressive about getting me on BP poison and I told him where to put the script. That was over 40 years ago and I've outlived the people I know who were put on BP medicine.
And some quite a bit lower!
you didnt take medicine??
No; I was always pressured to but I always refused. On a different note; don't drink coffee up to 4 hours before going to a doctor; your BP will be elevated by up to 15mmHg. Doctors will never warn you about that.
how did you control your Bp?
I think you’re absolutely right.
My mother at 63 was prescribed BP medication but they didn't agree with her so she stopped taking them.She died at age 93.The only medication she ever took was a thyroid tablet.
Yes, ditto cholesterol medication. My mother was prescribed at sixty something, hated the side effects and quit taking it, lived to be 97! Am I going to take statins for my high LDL? Hell no! Stop eating refined carbs now!
Sometimes less is more. Especially with older folks. That's what my mom's doctor told us.
When I was around 17 I had high blood pressure as a result of pregnancy. In hospital I learned to eat salt free foods. Since then I only took in salt in rice, pasta, maize. Never raw salt. Meat I used Spices and garlic salts. Up until now 70yrs,I have never had problems with BP. 120/80.
Gratulation! I'm over 81 years old, and eating all my life this what you're refusing to eat all your life.
Conclusions: your statement or my proof nothing. 😉
Doctor’s view on blood pressure changes every generation.Before Franklin Roosevelt died,he had aBP of 200/140 and his physicians considered it Normal for his age and other factors!.Nowadays, physicians would have admitted him into ICU and started aggressive medications to bring it down!.
😅you are right on that one
I've read several articles that tell you to place the cuff on bare skin and not over clothes!
I'm glad to see this on RUclips. My doctor said your blood pressure is measured by age. I'm on target with my BP. I'm in the correct range. Thanks for letting folks know this. Most people don't know this.

I'm skeptical, when "normal" BP keeps being lowered. Big pharma keep pushing more drugs while our health heads the opposite way.
When I was a medical technician in the early 70s, it was 100 plus your age over 80. Now BP is so tightly controlled in older ages on a "risk" of problems but old folks fall over when they get up because the heart can't keep up with the load, more of a risk of broken bones than other problems!
The same with blood sugar level too. Heartless commercial bullshit.
I recall when normal b/p reading was 140/80. What changed it. I am 80 plus and have fluctuating readings with or without meds over the period. No problem so far as I think twice about keeping the pharma clan from getting rich off my vulnerability!!
If it was up to big Pharm, we all would be on 6 to 8 meds. They keep lowering the numbers to include more “treatable” patients.
As I have got older, my blood pressure has dropped, which is good, as I had a triple by pass aged 53 and heart valve repair and replacement aged 66.
This was largely caused by genetic factors.
I do take blood pressure tablets, and have for about 20 years, but my BP is now consistently just below 120 on 70, and my doctors/ nurses are very pleased.
Don't believe the brainwashed Big Pharma Dr's. Genetics is one if their Biggest Lies yet except for obese parents who have obese kids where kids genes are changed by their obese parents. Cancer and heart disease no $$ in a cure! They constantly tell you oh your father had colon cancer so u need to get checked! My father was a lineman on High voltage poles and loved meat. One or both of those were the reason he had colon cancer @79. I am closing in on his age now. Not ONE polyp!!! Genetics my ass. My BP 105-68! Heart doctor told me I have the heart of a forty-year-old in my sixties.
Without blood pressure med, would the blood pressure go up? That does not sound like it drop to normal.
I had a heart attack and 2 stents at 62 and a quad bypass at 64 and prior to the bypass my BP always wanted to around 160/100. With meds it was usually around 150/95 where as after the bypass meds get it down to between 107/65 to 129/78. It sort of cycles between those ranges.
Im 63, my pressure is generally around the 120's over 80's, i dont drink or smoke, do crossfit 3 times a week plus weights twice a week and eat a fruit, veg and lean meat diet. Works for me
Moderation is key in everything including stress. Remember that the average life expectancy is 75--78. Take some time to enjoy your life before its gone.
As of this morning, my blood pressure was 123/88 with a heart rate of 66.
I’m 76 years old.
Good for you.
At 70 I'm about the same
If you want to find out something interesting about blood pressures, google the guidelines for blood pressure in the 50s and 60s. You will know that the drug companies have increased substantially.
For a 52yr old alcoholic, 170 was the norm. Full saturation made things manageable until the seizures began. Sober now a 60, the BP is normal, like night and day the pain of anxiety is gone. It took six months to get a good LFT and about the same to see BP approach normal. Good luck
Congratulations on your sobriety!! I know first hand how difficult it is.
@@lesheinen6116 Thanks for the reply. It is a reminder to take a better look at today.
Take a Milk Thistle supplement twice a day for detoxification and good liver function. You'll benefit from it.
The EU has recently changed those guidelines. The pre-hypertension numbers were changed to 140/90. If the diastolic is 90 and above that is when intervention is actually necessary.
In order to have a more reliable reading it is important for the patient to be COMPLETELY RELAXED. Problem is when BP is taken in the doctor's office the patient is NEVER relaxed. Consequently, the BP will be HIGHER. Hence, "Your blood pressure is a bit high. So, let's try this to bring it down." It is a well known fact that just being in a doctor's office WILL raise the BP. Some research done in Australia around 10 years or so ago using the ambulatory cuff for 24 hours then having a nurse and doctor take the BP found differences. Using an ambulatory cuff is the BEST way to measure the BP. What the researchers found is that when the nurse took the BP it averaged about 19 points HIGHER than the ambulatory reading. When the doctor took the BP it was about 27 point higher. Also, taking the BP at home is MORE ACCURATE than taking it at the doctor's office. But taking the BP at home isn't useful with just 1 reading. You need 3 readings averaged. Sit and relax for about 15 minutes before taking the first reading. (It actually takes about 20 minutes for the body and the heart to completely relax.) Wait 5 minutes before taking each of the next 2 readings. Then, average all 3. That will give you a more realistic idea of the BP. It will most likely be much lower than at the doctor's office. Thing is, so many things other than being at the doctor's office WILL affect the BP: insomnia, stress, digestion, excitement, anger, sadness, cold, heat, etc. You get the idea. The thing is doctors would actually be smart to avoid prescribing BP medications. The side effects can be VERY problematic. A friend of mine's doctor changed her medication and it gave her gout. She was wondering why she had gout. I told her to check the side effects and she found out the cause was the BP medication. I was prescribed one that gave me tachycardia. Since it was at the VA I wasn't taken off of it for about 5 years. This medical incompetence produced Atrial Fibrillation. Then for the Afib was prescribed another drug that made it worse. No matter how I complained they did nothing. They just had to treat me for something since the VA facilities are controlled by their pharmacies (I had a doctor tell me that. Go figure. They get drugs in bulk so they're a lot cheaper.). So, take care. It's your body and your life.
100% correct.
My bp goes way up before i even enter the medical establishment.
Thanks for putting up the charts. I'm 61 and have the blood pressure of a 25 year old. Lol. Cycling between 90 and 150 miles a week might have something to do with that. Never underestimate an old man on a bike!
I’m 91 and have HPB that ranges between 121 and 219 and don’t think meds do much but keep me feeling weak.
been in this field a long time. amazing to me how they keep moving the goalposts without a whit of scientific backing. before you yell at me, look at how different the charts are for many European countries. they don't jump on the meds train nearly as quickly either. and their people outlive us!
Simple video, clear, to the point, bless Mister/Lady that know how to teach, explain and propagate knowledge without fudging up the subject. Thank you.
So many doctors go with the same targets for everyone, 120/80. As we get older though we need a little more pressure to pump the blood through our older veins.
Who told you that , a witch doctor ?
@@robertlosasso4222 You keep buying the bullshit, not me.
It's important to be your own advocate.
Your doctor does not care if you drop dead.
Thats what I always say !....lol
When there were no lobbyist the normal blood pressure according to AHA was 100+your age over 80-90.
i guess we would need to see statistical evidence on whether the meds have lowered average death rates since those good old days. comparison may be tricky as smoking was likely far more common then.
I'll be 65 in July. Glad to see that my #'s are looking normal.
Reality is that B.P. tolerance differs from person to person. My maternal aunt didn't bother much even when her B.P went up to 200/100. Finding the doctor(of same neighborhood and young)worried, she asked him, 'what happened, son? 'But if my BP. goes up to 130/80 from usual 120/70 ,I feel unwell.
I seem to recall 100 plus your age before BP medications became available. People lived long then too. I don’t disagree that having a lower blood pressure is good but I think we may have gone off the deep end when people who have a systolic pressure get worried about high BP.
That's right, sometimes one just has to follow the money. A simple adage that answers many of life's questions.
I meant to say “systolic pressure over 120”. My mom had good blood pressure and had her first of 4 heart attacks when she was 64. She lived to 89 though in good health otherwise.

I am 83 years old. I know, i am off these charts. However, my average daily readings are 117 / 77 /44 over last 6 months. I take 1 tablet of 2.5 mg of BP meds per day. Be happy, i'm happy.
my blood pressure was 130/80 when I was in the 20's and remains the same till today at the age of 60.
You are doing something right. Whatever you are doing keep doing it.
You are very lucky.
I'm 74 female and when I'm relaxed my BP can gradually drop quite low. I recently called in at a drop-in clinic that was offering Covid and flu vaccination and blood pressure testing. The did three successive measurements and systolic was, sequentially something like 130, 112 and 97.
I'm not a doc but that's still okay because the average remains nominal. unless diastolic in only 30 points or less lower. Also note rate. it should not be under 60ppm or around there (once again on average). also anything average over 90 and you really should be on Metoprolol or some other med that also lowers rate. you don't want systolic to average under 100 though. normal diastolic via my PCP is 60-80 thus you'd want that diastolic under 70 on that last read. yep check with your PCP but because your average is nominal I would not be very concerned. The whole idea here is to have these numbers remaining nominal even if you need meds to maintain those levels.
the normal Bp should be 110/70 Your Bp should be the last one 97, one need to seat for 10 min before measuring the true Bp, when walk or exercise every body Bp up to 160 or above. that is normal
I think it's ok. There is a advice practice breathing control technique..and morning walk too. It will help you to control your b.p ..even breathing control technique which is more powerful than any stimulated drugs like viagra etc with no side effect and u
will be able to enjoy ur sexual life as long as both of u desire even overnight too irrespective of any age group even bigger age gap .

BP too low?
Robert , Your BP is very good for your age. Are you taking any diurectics to lessen the fluid buildup? Also there is other medicines that lower edema (swelling) in your legs. Check to find your EF = (Ejection Fraction) this will tell you a lot about where your heart strength is. Best of luck finding the improvements to help you
Per the AAFP 140/90 is still normal. Over that is considered hypertension. AHA receives millions in donations from big pharma every year.
I feel fortunate that my BP (blood pressure) is @ 119/80 @ 74 years of age. I lost 83 pounds starting @ 245 pounds in 2019 & now @ 163 pounds in 2023 with no liposuction performed on me.

I am 6'4" and doing 385# and my un chemically adjusted( before meds) was 140/80 every Dr I saw thought that too high not 6 years ago the same drs thought 140/80 was good number to hold at now on their meds ( came down with Lisinopril cough) and had to change to different med then they added 2 pills of amylopia so now have 3 pills just for BP and yes meds work have seen 105/55 but also see 140/80 again changes almost hourly!!! I personally felt more stable at the 135-140 level!!!!!!!
One of my relatives had blood pressure readings off the chart high end. She passed at 93.
That sounds like my mom. She always had a BP problem. Had a stroke at 52, passed away at 63.
93? Isn't it an old age?
@@michaeljung4398 hence the irony.
My mother was on pressure meds. and it would be 200 over 130. The doctors could never get it lowered. She lived until 82 after an accident caused a severe loss of blood that starved her brain of oxygen and killed off brain cells which led to dementia within a couple of years. She never had a stroke or heart attack though and her pressure stayed that high to the end.
My grandmother’s BP was “off the chart” as well. She died of a stroke at 45.
I've always been 130/80 - even as a twenty-year-old. Today, at 70yo, it's still 130/80.
Slightly over the 120/80 recomended, but absolutely nothing to worry about.

I am 78 years old. For the past 20 years my resting blood pressure has remained constant at 105/60. This causes dizziness when standing up from a lying position (this is called orthostatic hypotension) and my doctors have told me that my biggest health risk might come from falling if I am not careful. I am careful, and any time I stand up quickly I reflexively bend over and put my hands on my knees for three or four seconds until the dizziness passes. I'm better off with BP too low rather than too high!

Getting your blood pressure to 120 over 80 is a 8 billion dollar a year profit for big pharma. The 100 plus your age has been and still is a standard in many countries.
Agree!! Years ago that is the guidelines!! Your age plus 100 specially for elderly! 120/80 is for young and athletic individuals!!
True, that was 60 years ago and still a little true today, but we now place more emphasis on avoiding a stroke or heart problems and that is why they prefer a lower pressure. But 120 or below is just what the pharma like to sell you more expensive drugs. I am 78 and I prefer 140 is OK. My wife is older but 130 seems to be a good goal.

Everybody should have a wrist cuff nowadays. they're relatively cheap, accurate and they also measure rate. There's no excuse for NOT having one. To take your reading SIT in a normal position relaxed for 15 minutes prior to taking the read. Insert your cuff on the prescribed wrist (I use left) in the prescribed manner and hold your wrist at heart elevation. Press test button and do not talk or move while under test. When the unit beeps take your read. My PSP sometimes has me recording it at various times of day about a week or so apart. Yeah that's the final step take your reading at least once/week at different times of day. One final note. Do NOT take consecutive tests less than an hour apart. Its also normal to have different readings the idea is to average your results over time and if you observe that average on either or both reads tell your doc at your next visit UNLESS the change is rather sudden outside normalcy in either direction. If THAT'S the case get in touch right away.
Hey, Lee...Excellent advice. I have a cuff like you describe and find it easy to operate. It's very informative and it will keep you well advised on this important health concern.

The most accurate way to measure BP is with a stethoscope and a correctly sized BP cuff, and then having someone who knows what they are doing give results. I was an RN for years and I don't trust the machines.
I had moderately high BP for many years around 135/85 according to the BP machines in drug stores. Then read the fine print on those machines and saw that it had a range for arm sizes up to 13 inches, my arms are more like 14 to 15 inches. But my doctors readings which came in later years were similar to those machines. Then I got my own BP monitor and started taking magnesium and red beet supplements, but the instructions on the new BP monitor indicated that my arm was ALWAYS being measured too low that the cuff should be at the same hight as my heart! Measured this way and with a BP monitor that fits a man’s larger arms my BP was just below my mid twenties measure when I was still a runner and EXTREMELY HEALTHY and thin. As soon as I told my doctor I own my own BP monitor his readings dropped to the same as mine! 😮 At the moment I don’t have a doctor anymore, I am 63 years old, all those years of moderately high BP readings were BAD MEASUREMENTS!
Same with me. I'm 63 also . I got my own machine . My readings went from borderline high, to normal.
You sure you are not overthinking this coz you are going to die soon if you don't, and die soon if you do. Think how fast the last 20 years has gone..

US, European Hypertension Guidelines: More Alike Than Different
Authors from both sides of the Atlantic joined up to outline existing similarities and make the case for “harmonization.”

US, European Hypertension Guidelines: More Alike Than Different
(UPDATED) Leading hypertension experts on both sides of the Atlantic say there is more in common between their two sets of guidelines than there are things that set them apart. Their article, published recently in Circulation, makes the case for “harmonization” as a way forward.
Back in 2017, the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association (ACC/AHA) issued recommendations for the prevention, detection, evaluation, and management of high blood pressure. Just a year later, in 2018, the European Society of Cardiology/European Society of Hypertension (ESC/ESH) released their own guidance.
The new paper was commissioned by the US and European societies to compare and contrast the two guidelines, said lead author Paul K. Whelton, MD (Tulane University School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine, New Orleans, LA), president-elect of the World Hypertension League and writing group chair for the US recommendations.
“We were very enthusiastic” about the opportunity to explore where the documents converge, Whelton told TCTMD. “The first thing people usually do with guidelines, and it’s kind of a knee-jerk response, is to put them side by side and [ask] what can we find that’s different and then make an awful lot out of that: ‘The experts can’t agree. It’s a crisis situation. Patients have no confidence. Clinicians must be confused, etc.’”
That can limit the impact of the new recommendations, he said. “It sows the seeds of people saying: ‘Well, we don’t know what to do. We’ll just continue doing what we’ve always done.’”
In this case, efforts by some to “stir the pot” are also inaccurate, he continued, “because the vast majority of what we were recommending was very similar. Even in the area of greatest discord, which is classification of blood pressure, when it came to actual management, we were very similar.”
Giuseppe Mancia, MD (University of Milano-Bicocca, Milan, Italy), ESH chairperson for the 2018 European guidelines and a coauthor of the new paper, said that investigators conducting scientific research are often drawn to differences. For them, that’s what’s “more interesting. When everybody agrees, there’s no research anymore, in a way,” he commented to TCTMD. “So the accent is placed on differences, but if you look at the similarities, these are much more important.”
Moreover, not all of the evidence for guidelines comes from randomized controlled trials, with some advice being informed by experience and less-rigorous studies. This opens the door to differing interpretations of the literature, said Mancia.
Calling out the areas of agreement will enable the field to better tackle hypertension, said Whelton. “The more we can harmonize these guidelines and have a common position, a common platform, I think the better our core message is, and the better our opportunities are for really having impact.”
Senior author Bryan Williams, MD (University College London, England), who served as ESC chairperson for the 2018 guidelines and is president elect of the International Society of Hypertension, agreed that debate about guidelines is common and “inevitably seems to focus on and exaggerate differences between them.”
Yet “debate is nearly always good, because it creates noise and awareness and allows free discussion of areas of practice where uncertainty still remains,” said Williams. Recalling such discussions he had at conferences with lead author Whelton, “they were always good natured and hopefully informative,” he noted.
The reality is that not only do the hypertensions overlap more than they diverge, but also “there is greater consensus than there has probably ever been,” Williams told TCTMD via email, adding, “Despite different approaches to guideline development and different healthcare systems, our independent assessments of vast quantities of data have broadly reached similar conclusions. . . . This can only be a good thing.”
Different Cutoffs, Targets
In comparing the guidelines, the most salient disparity is seen in the cutoffs for what constitutes hypertension. The ACC/AHA lowered the threshold for “stage 1 hypertension” to 130/80 mm Hg, whereas the ESC/ESH chose to keep the traditional cut point of 140/90 mm Hg, with the lower range considered “high normal BP.”
Much controversy ensued when the US set that bar, with some worrying that a broader definition of hypertension would contribute to the rapidly rising prevalence of the disease and strain healthcare systems, especially those in low-income countries but also in the United States. Others pointed to the potential to save more than 300,000 lives each year in the US alone. Amid these debates, clinicians raised the alarm that patient care might suffer.
Very good explanation. Thank you
My blood pressure was 187/139,and my blood sugar was 220 when I was a teener. I'm now only a couple years below 80 years old. Before I started taking medication for my blood pressure I felt fine. Now I get dizzy if and when I can't take them. What should the doc say?
I've had to instruct most of the medical "assistants" who take my BP how to do it properly. (* Not immediately after walking, seated with both feet flat on the floor and cuff at heart level. ) They are equally incompetent at measuring height and weight, used to calculate BMI.
BP varies on certain time of the day and how active you are not everyone have the same base line. if you let your doctor pushing drugs on you for their year end bonus and trips from pharmaceutical companies you will end up on dialysis sooner than you think.
My bp went to the range of a 30-40yo when I cut out carbs which are clearly very inflammatory. I’m in my 70s.
And carbs drive up insulin which can increase BP and feed cancers as newer research is showing.
One thing should be mentioned about blood pressure. With this test you are saying your low number is too high. Anything can raise blood pressure, including the worry about the test in the doctor 's office. Also working out etc. A "high" blood pressure readings is not like a high a1c. If your a1c is high you are diabetic. A better test method should be developed for blood pressure. A lot of people are probably taking medication that should not be.
I am 70 years of age, male, 183 cm, 85.5 kg. walkin test for BP at local Walmart. BP: 99/63/72. No idea why it is so low but Dr is not concerned..
As a matter of fact almost nobody elder than 65 really has a blood pressure of 130/80. And actually the advice is only thought to market pressure reducing medication. An actual and responsible advice would be to have the diastolic pressure below 100 at any rate, lower then 90 would of course desirable. A Systolic pressure below 160 would also be desirable but is also not engraved in stone. By the way: I learned to measure blood pressure on the left arm, why you do it on the other side?
What about WCS (white coat syndrome)? How do you control that prior to the doctor checking your BP?
It's impossible. My dr asks me to email in my own readings over a week, from home.
Dr. are drug pushers.
Sorry, but I have a LOWER BP, When the Nurse takes it , no matter what coat color. AND, I'm sure, I'm not gay! (Despite my ex , trying to tell me I hate wimmin!)
What I did was to do some breathing exercises the moment I got into the room while I waited for them to come in. Deep breath in ,slowly exhale out,repeat and it actually worked
I’m 79 yr. old and had mine taken today! It was 140/70
My BP was always at uncontrollable 150/90 and above. Unfortunately, doctors used to treat my HP with drugs were found death much younger than me.
Those are blood pressure measurements shown on caucasions. The western world to some extent is not familiar with the fact that Asians and Africans and descendents there of, ( people with darker complexions ), have smaller volumes / lumen in regard to their arteries and veins. Result, higher pressure measurements being normal. The world consists of various ethnic group of people and this information seems to forget this unfortunately. This is based on own experiences as well as large examinations within multiple ethnic groups, which is referred to in the English medical journal Lancet, as I recall!
a mate of mine is a doctor and he said the acceptable level of blood pressure has been going steadily down because of averages so something that was normal a few years ago is dangerously high now, use that info any way you want
Same thing with cholesterol first it was 400 which was higher ,then 300, then 200, now 100 or under and people are getting dizzy and falling and dying just to give more pills!
