Question:
Answers:
The symptom is "orthostatic hypotension"...in other words the sudden change from horizontal to vertical causes a temporary sudden drop in blood pressure as your body adapts to the new position. There are many causes...some benign...some not so benign. You need to be evaluated.
Sounds like it might be low blood pressure. Nothing you can do, but get up a bit slower. Also, talk to your doctor.
