Hello!
Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!
I understand your concern and would explain that your symptoms seem to be related to a low blood pressure or
orthostatic hypotension.
Have you measured your blood pressure during these episodes?
I recommend to closely monitor your blood pressure in sitting and standing position. A decrease in your blood pressure more than 20mm Hg when standing up, compared to sitting position would be indicative of orthostatic hypotension.
A head up tilt test would be necessary to rule in/out this disorder.
But I would also recommend consulting with your GP for a careful physical examination, a resting ECG and some blood lab tests :
-
complete blood count (for chronic anemia)
- kidney and liver function tests
-
thyroid hormone levels
-
cortisol plasma levels (adrenal gland function)
- fasting glucose (for possible
hypoglycemia)
- blood electrolytes, etc.
to exclude other possible metabolic causes related to this symptomatology.
Hope to have been helpful!
Best regards,
Dr. Iliri
