Low BP post ride

[starship]

I am hypertensive (High Blood Pressure) and on medicine. I started riding two months ago, and have done almost 500 miles.

I take my blood pressure before a ride and after cool down, and other times during the day.

My post ride BP was 100/65, pulse 72, today. I have noted much lower reading post ride.

Should I be concerned that it might drop two low?

This would be a question for your doctor to answer. If nothing else, call one of those nurse hotlines to 'ask a nurse'. Also your doctor should know that you are excercising while on said medicine. Call yoru doctor and ask!
