Neuron Structure. Your brain is made of approximately 100 billion nerve cells, called neurons. Neurons have the amazing ability to gather and transmit electrochemical signals -- think of them like the gates and wires in a computer.
Most doctors will only consider chronically low blood pressure as dangerous if it causes noticeable signs and symptoms, such as: 1  Dizziness or lightheadedness. 2  Nausea. 3  Fainting (syncope)  Dehydration and unusual 1  thirst.

Low blood pressure (hypotension) is pressure so low it causes symptoms or signs due to the low flow of blood through the arteries and veins. When the flow of blood is too low to deliver enough oxygen and nutrients to vital organs such as the brain, heart, and kidney, the organs do not function normally and may be temporarily or permanently damaged.
