Hi, I have been told that I have orthostatic Blood Pressure.  I have been having a series of dizziness and black outs. I stumble and fall a lot.  I can be walking and be unstable in my gait. Do any or all of these symptoms come from orthosatic bp?  What is a definition of orthostatic bp, and why does it hapen?

Yes these symptoms are caused by orthostatic or postural hypotension (orthostatic blood pressure)It happens when you stand up - gravity makes the blood to pool in your legs so the heart has less blood to pump - low blood pressure (means less blood will go in your brain and the other part of the body) . Normally our body has natural process to fix the hypotension problems in these process (in heart, nervous system, metabolic problem) cause orthostatic hypotension. The important thing is to find the main cause of the orthostatic hypotension here are some that may cause : - Deny Chat Doctor.
