Postural hypotension: Anybody's blood pressure can drop slightly when they quickly stand up, and sometimes this causes brief light-headedness ("head rush") or dizziness. This kind of BP drop is called postural hypotension. However, this sounds much more severe than the average case and maybe quite dangerous. Other health problems (kidney, heart, liver, infection, dehydration) can contribute. See a doctor ASAP.
