Thank you, Judy Judy, it does sound like her symptoms are from the low blood pressure. The question is then probably why is her blood pressure so low. I'd been smoking 2 packs a day for 30 years and then stopped last month. I stand up. Franklin, dizziness when standing up can come from many things.
Common causes are a drop in the blood pressure or a neurologic cause.
The blood pressure drop can come from dehydration, anemia, heart problems, drug or medication effect, and other causes. Hope this helps, and thanks for asking. Chronic Chest Pain Hi Doctor, I am a young male who had no health problems until 1997. In 1997 I had chest pain and was admitted to the hospital for observation. My EKG was normal and no problems were found to cause the pain.
