Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
This sounds like a postural hypotension where blood pressure gets down when we change our posture. I would advise you to get that checked with a physician.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
