[|Human|] I was just told after having the bubble test, that I have a small hole in my heart. He also put me on blood pressure medicine, because Ive had passing out episodes and my bp tends to be on the low side.  I am 51 yrs. old. Does one have anything to do with the other?
[|AI|]  Hello, because a bubble test was done at age of 51 years, its mostly patent foramen oval.  Before I start I would like to reassure you that It's nothing be stressed about and completely benign entity.  Its present its 1 in 4 adults.  Now, per se it doesn't cause low BP, and if you have Blood pressure on lower side, why have you been put on blood pressure medication as they are for people who have higher blood pressure.  Also, much blood pressure medication if are given at higher dosage can cause what Is called as orthostatic hypotension, it means there is fall in blood pressure when you suddenly stand up or sit from sleeping position, which may be the reason of passing out episode.  Do evaluate you noodles pressure medicines and maintain Good HY Chat Doctor.  Lastly the hole in heart can sometimes cause transient is chemical attacks of brain which may cause passing out like clinical scenario, so do rule out the same. Hoping I could help resolve your concern.  Regards
