Thank you for asking!
Hypotension with pacemaker placed presenting with dizziness and sweating is always worth examination and assessment of pace making. Get him to an electrophysiologist and check the programming of the pacemaking activities. If that is ruled out then all clear. But better to be on the safer road. Get the function of cardiac profile assessed.
take care
