Hello,
Thanks for your query,
From the history provided your symptoms appear to be due to orthostatic hypotension.
Presence of cardiac conditions like MVP and development of low blood pressure symptoms could indicate the onset of possible congestive cardiac failure.
You might benefit by consulting a cardiologist for a proper assessment and treatment of your condition.
