Detailed Answer:
Hello!
Welcome to Ask a Doctor service!
I passed carefully through your question and would explain that your symptoms could be suggestive of low blood pressure or orthostatic hypotension, considering the fact that lying down with your feet up improves the situation.
I don't think that there is any problem with your arteries, especially considering your young age.
For this reason, I would recommend you to stay at bed rest and closely monitor your blood pressure values.
In case of low blood pressure, I would recommend performing some tests:
- complete blood count for anemia
- blood electrolytes
- kidney and liver function tests
- a resting ECG.
A Head up Tilt test would help exclude possible orthostatic hypotension.
In the meantime, taking plenty of fluids would help improve your situation.
Hope you will find this answer helpful!
I remain at your disposal for any further questions whenever you need!
Kind regards,
Dr.Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
