her bp seems very low and her heart rate is very low, doctors may want to fit a pacemaker incase the heart stops as its beating very slow, her bp can also be raised, if shes starting to go dizzy with this then id demand something to bedone as its dangerous, have they said what is causing the low hr and low bp
