Hello welcome to HCM.
I have read your question and understand your concerns.
If you feels any symptoms like dizziness, light headness vision problems than you should see doctor on priority basis.

My advice to you is -.

1.Just lie down at present and take lemon water with excessive salt and sugar and wait for blood pressure to come up at least upto 100/60.

2.When you visit the doctor ask him to reschedule the medicines for blood pressure. I think overdose of blood pressure medicines is the cause of low blood pressure.

3.You can omit totoday's dose of blood pressure medicines.

4.If your doctor feels to confirm fluctuations in blood pressure you can go for 24 hrs blood pressure monitoring
Thank you.
Have a nice day.
