A diagnosis of unstable blood pressure can be caused by a multitude of factors, illnesses and disease processes. Unstable blood pressure can provoke a variety of symptoms, including but not limited to dizziness, shortness of breath, instability, fainting and erratic heart rhythms.
But if your blood pressure drops suddenly or causes symptoms like dizziness or fainting, it is too low. It can cause shock. Shock can be dangerous if it is not treated right away. Blood pressure is a measure of how hard the blood pushes against the walls of your arteries as it moves through your body.nother name for low blood pressure is hypotension (say hy-poh-TEN-shun). In most healthy adults, low blood pressure does not cause problems or symptoms. In fact, it may be normal for you. For example, people who exercise regularly often have lower blood pressure than people who are not as fit.
