Today, I went to the doctor's because of a cough. When the nurse was taking my blood pressure, it was so low that she said, "Oh, you might be dead." FML

Nurse humor. If it makes you feel better, it usually takes nurses two or three tries to get my blood pressure because it's always been unusually low and paired with a very rapid heartbeat. Electric ones are even worse. That said, if you do have low blood pressure, you should be very careful about standing up from sitting, and sitting up from laying down, because the change in orientation can make your blood pressure drop even further. Which then makes you black out, and as such is a good way to end up with a concussion or broken bone.
