Is it safe to fly with low blood pressure?
Filed Under (low blood pressure) by admin on 04-09-2009

For someone with diabetes. Is it safe to fly if they are feeling dizzy and has been determined they have low blood pressure?

I am diabetic and have low blood pressure and fly frequently with my job. (my boss buys cars on ebay. i fly to where ever they are, pick them up and drive them back.) I don’t normally feel dizzy, though. If I feel dizzy and have low blood sugar, I drink a glass of orange juice and eat a few glucose tablets and check my sugar every 15 or 30 minutes until it is normal. If I were you, I would place a quick call to my doctor just to be sure.
