A member asked:

Does everyone get drop in bp little dizzy when they stand up quick only after lying down like all day? never happens when im up and moving and sit for a little only when im in bed all day?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not unusual: This is what they call orthostatic hypotension. When you get up quickly, the blood flow to the brain diminishes momentarily and your body needs a little time to adjust to the new position to provide ample blood flow to your brain. You need to try to sit up slowly first and when your are sure there is no dizziness then stand up.
