Many possibilities: There are quite a few possibilities for the symptoms you describe - from low blood pressure on standing (with many causes), to anxiety with hyperventilation, to a low calcium level, and peripheral neuropathy. Best to get checked out if this hasn't resolved on its own.

Many issues: BP? Med: There could be many causes but your blood pressure and medications come immediately to mind. You need a full examination by your primary care physician as well as a review of your history and medications along with possible diagnostic testing.
