High Pulse Rate and Low Blood Pressure Means Danger
I have read all you contributions. Some of you have the information mixed up..like the kid that said that baroreceptors detect temperature changes. No it does not. baroreceptor is a sensory receptor found in blood vessels. Thats besides the point though. Smart people like me like to insult people first before we cure them- does that remind you of house? lol. I love that guy.
Now solve this situation: when you have a decline in Red blood Cells, the osmolarity of your blood is reduced, and the viscosity of your blood is reduced. Now your blood is less viscous. At this point you blood pressure declines, but then because you blood is more fluid (less viscous, low in RBC content, hence low oxygen carrying ability-hypoxia) your heart rate increases. You heart is working extra heard to make sure that oxygen is sent to your tissue. Now that is is Increased heart rate.
So my dear friends, all the situations that indicate anemia, such as Edema(low osmolarity of blood resulting in fluid accumulation), hypoxia- low oxygen in the blood due to fewness of RBC, and Decreased viscosity (low RDC content of blood) would lower your blood pressure, but then your heart rate is going to be high, as a compensatory attempt by you heart to maintain supply of oxygen to your systems.
So, you prolly want to have your doctor check you red blood cell count, check the oxygen carrying capacity of your blood because there is a change you might be anemic.
Now we need to know why type of Anemia it is.
If its is Microlytic Anemia- then you need to increase you Iron intake. Get Fergon from Wal-mart.
If it is Hemolytic- then it is hereditary.
If it is megaloblastic- then you need to check whether you are lacking Vitamin B12 or If you are lacking Folic acid.
I hope this helps. Print this out and give it to your doctor maybe it would help him connect the dots.
