[|Human|] I have a distolic murmur and my distolic blood pressure is always low whereas my systolic pressure is high. my distolic pressure is usually 59 my systolic pressure is usually 160 ish or over sometimes , but sometimes my blood pressure just drops and i feel faint , so i am afraid to go on tablets for high blood pressure. Is my dystolic pressure at 59 too low ?
[|AI|]  Hello. Thank you for your question. I understand your concerns. According to the description of a great pressure difference and the positioning of the murmur in diastole, there is a good probability that you have aortic regurgitation (condition where blood returns from the aorta into the left ventricle in that part of cardiac cycle when aortic valve should be closed - diastole). I recommend that an echocardiogram should be performed to assess if this diagnoses is present, if present - what is the severity, then we could give more recommendations regarding the treatment. I hope I was helpful. Feel free to ask again
