What Causes Dizziness After Bending From The Seated Position?
Hi, I was feeling dizzy after I would bend over and straighten back up. A neighbor offered me a blood pressure cuff, in a seated position my pressure was 118 over 80 with a pulse of 80. I stood up, bent over for about 30 seconds and checked it again. This time it was 90 over 48 with a pulse of 98. I was wondering what the most typical reason for this might be?

Hello,
It could be an orthostatic hypotension.
