Specializes in Cardiology

See Internist-triage: This could be several things. I know not what meds U R on, or what UR BP is. I know not if U R dehydrated. There could be an issue with autonomic nervous sytem. Stay hydrated, if U havent urinated for 3-4 hrs drink glass of water. See the doctor to check electrolytes (low Mag or Potassium), fluid status, Heart rate on standing. Test for vagal reaction. If R/O need to see Neurologist.
