Postural hypotension: Your blood pressure may be dropping when you stand or get upright from supine or seated posture. This could be due to dehydration, medication reaction, anemia, thyroid disorder, and even associated with migraine, or variety of inner ear disorders, such as meniere's. Visit with your doctor and get opinion.
