Blood pressure drop?!


Question:

Blood pressure drop?

I donate plasma and they take my blood pressure every time I go. Two days ago (Wed.), my blood pressure was 138/82, but today (Fri.) it was 136/62. I was wondering what could cause the change in the diastolic reading? I haven't done anything differently. Thanks!

I'm not concerned at all..I'm just curious (I'm going to be a doctor so I like to know about these things).


Answers:

Blood pressure changes constantly. If you take your blood pressure 12 times in a day, you will get very different readings most times.
