Answer 1/2 - Submitted 4/21/2011

When a person develops low blood pressure, the heart rate initially goes up as the body tries to compensate but if the blood pressure continues dropping for example in a person who is bleeding severely, then the heart rate also starts dropping before the person dies.

 
 

Answer 2/2 - Submitted 4/22/2011

Low blood pressure is an abnormal condition, which provoke the inadequate blood flow to the heart, brain and other vital organs. It can cause increased heart rate and symptoms like dizziness or light-headedness.

Most commonly, the normal level of blood pressures ranks between 90/60 mm Hg to 130/80 mm Hg. For some people, every significant change – even as little as 20 mm Hg – can cause serious problems.
