My blood pressure is 117/19. Should I inform my Doctor?

I was on high blood pressure medication, and cut the dose in partly when it got better
Answers:     if your diastolic is that low, (the second number) it is very very bad and you should progress to the doctor ASAP, your sistolic is good, the ideal BP is 120/80.
IF your blood pressure is actually 117/19, you shouldn't even be conscious at this point.
se call 911 NOW, if this is your actual pressure.

It's the "over 19" fragment that is extremely worrisome. Not the 117. (the 117 is your systolic pressure, and you report that your diastolic pressure is only 19. It should be at least 60).

n't think 19 is a possible diastolic pressure. Check it again.
However 117 is a great systolic pressure.
