Swollen ankles and low blood pressure what does this mean?

My dad drinks a lot of beer and he smokes but is not a chain smoker. He's 55 but in really good shape,(like he lifts weights every day and can do over 100 push ups in a row) Recently my dad (who normally has higher blood pressure) has had a lot lower blood pressure like 100 over 60 and his ankles have been swelling up what could this mean?

How are blood pressure and swelling of ankles related?

Sister is 47, has been on low dose of medication for high blood pressure for two years, the blood pressure is under control. Over the past week her ankles have been swollen. Is this something we should be concerned about? What could it possibly be, heat??? Something serious??

Also what are some other things she can do beside the pills to get rid of extra wate rin her body?

Does anyone have any information on my symptoms?

Im a 74year old man, very healthy and active.
Only recentley i started feeling very low and went to my doctor to get some information. He took blood tests and gave me iron tablets vitamin b12 and folic acid as he thought it was down to lack of iron. When i returned for my blood results my iron was fine and doctors does not know what it could be.

My symptoms are:

* Pins and needles and numbness in both my legs it runs from my ankles to just below the knees
* My legs also go either hot or cold not at the same time.
* I also get it in both arms and down my back aroundmy shoulders.
* My face gets flushed and hot
* The soles of my feet get very sensitive.
* And my whole body gets very hot all over or very cold and gets worse in bed.

If anyone has experienced anything like this or knows whats its down to or medication i could take I would really appreicate it if you could reply asap please

Thankyou x

ok im in wrestling and its summer an i have been lazy for more than half of the beginning of it. Oops! well schools about to start an im nedding to get in shape fast. so i have qustions!

1. im thinking about taking ((Nature Made: Super B-Complex W/Vitamin C & Folic Acid Twin Pack Tablets 100 Ct Vitamins, 2 ct )) to help out with my matabolism an help me get energized to work out an of course fr my health. do you thin this will make a significant diffrence?

2. im going to start hitting th gym every day 5 days a week an saving the weekends for some time to rest my body. at the gym im going to hit the weights hard doing some major muscle building. Do you have any advice on that?

3.When it come to working out i cant run to save my life. i have big problems with my knees an ankles because htey start to hurt while running but in the way that youknow somethingis wrong with you. i really need some alternatives for a complete full body work out that will help me lose a little body fat an build up my endurance like running would. so do you have any?

thanks and i apperciate it! LOVES!!!
