hmm....well, I *think* low blood pressure can be linked with dehydration which can also be associated with headache. So, perhaps try keeping your fluids up and see if that helps.

| Hmmm I already drink a good 2-3L of water a day! It was triggered by food poisoning 2 weeks ago but maybe my body is still catching up. Oh should have mentioned im 19 weeks pregnant haha that would help! |

They could be separate symptoms.
Headaches are normal during pregnancy, I think, due to the additional blood volume in our bodies. I wouldn't have thought that low blood pressure would cause headaches, rather, tiredness and dizziness.....? ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">
