Suggest Treatment For Sporadic Lightheadedness, With Blood Pressure On The Lower Side

I have been experiencing lightheadedness off/on for the last month or so. My blood pressure normally runs low - 115/90 to 90/60. Recently it has gotten as low as 88/54. Do I need to be concerned about this? Should I see a Dr.? I did have blood work done last week during my annual exam and it was all fine.
