What Can Cause Blurred Vision Upon Standing?

Sometimes when I stand up I feel odd: I have to grab/hold on to something because my vision fades away.....I don t pass out but I can t see/hear anything. During this time I can feel my entire body shaking. If I m holding anything, it is on the floor/ground when I come to .

Hi,

You have forget to mention your age. In medical terminology that symptom is known as orthostatic hypotension. I hope your not a hypertensive and on any medication. If yes, then there is a need to modify your medications or dosage.

I would also like you to have some investigation done. 1. Complete blood count - look for anemia. 2. Fasting lipid profile. 3. BP check up. 4. Cardiologist checkup.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
