low blood pressure and passing out

So i have passed out a few times now Dr told me i have postural hypotension as it dose only happen when i stand from laying do or sitting or bending down to pick something up anyone else have this problem i have been told to up my salt so far has not been helping everyday the last two weeks has been scary Niki

My blood pressure since surgery has also been low as well.
 

Hope yours gets better

I was diagnosed with Orthostatic Hypotension which I think is the same as what you are referring to.

It doesn't cause me to faint or pass out but it gives me sudden onset dizziness, stars in front of my eyes, confusion, an sometimes I feel weak like I can't stand and may pass out but it always goes away after a few moments of being upright.  My doctor feels it will phase out as my body gets accustomed to the rapid weight loss and settles itself.  I have to take a bit more precaution when changing positions and going from up and down positions.....it happens to me often when I bend down to tie my shoes and then leap up to go for a run!  LOL

Yup that is it in a nut shell i seem to pass out with mine well it makes me feel better that i am not alone in this and heres to it going away

It happens to me as well. It has improved over the months. I also make sure I don't jump up. I make surre I stand up slowly to avaoid the dizziness and blacking out feeling

Ty i have been taking it slow right now it is bad even when taking my time it happens but great to hear it gets better

I don't pass out but get light headed often. I was told the same thing, increase my sodium. 

Hope yours gets better

I too was told its postural hypotension. I had low blood pressure even pre-op(around 95/70) but now its very low. Usually running around 78/55.

I am 14 months out and it has gotten a little better but I still take my time in getting up and changing positions.
