Mine was normal to a little high prior to surgery, but I never needed meds.  Now it is normal at around 100-70 sometimes lower and ocassionally higher when I am stressed.

Before surgery (348 lbs) it was 180/100 unmedicated and 135/80 medicated (3 bp meds).  18 months later and 168 lbs less it is 105/70 and sometimes it goes as low as the 50's in the bottom number.  

ETA I was off BP meds within 3 months after surgery.  

 

Come keep it real in R&R 3.0 Want an invite? PM me here.

I am 62. Presurgery I ran about 140 - 130 over 80 taking 2 blood pressure meds for about 30 years. Now off meds blood pressure about 110 over 50 - 60. For years I did not cook with salt and tried to avoid packaged food with a lot of salt. Now I have to make sure I get more. I find this rather funny. If I do not hydrate enough I get low pressure especially on standing too fast. Also alcohol effects my blood pressure.

I am 35. It was usually 100/60 to 110/70. Now it is usually 84-90/44-48. Doesn't cause much complications  except occasionally some dizziness. G2 Takes care of that.
