A member asked:
Postural hypotension. are you fine if you just move slowly, or is other treatment needed?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Postural hypotension: The first treatment is to make sure that you are hydrated, so drink more water. If you continue to have symptoms then there are meds that can be used to help. Compression stockings used to be used without much success.
