What Causes Dizziness With Low Blood Pressure?
I have been struggling with being dizzy, lightheaded and blacking out. My blood pressure around from 61/91 all the way up to 128/86 during these episodes of dizziness. Dr says my BP has been trending lower than normal lately. I had gastric bypass surgery in July of this year but dont think this is directly related to this issue. I had a bit of positioning vertigo in april before my surgery and then started with the full fledged dizziness issue in August and ended up going on leave from work by the end of Sept. Do you have any ideas on what could be my problem? I feel weak, dizzy and generally sick all the time.

Hello,
If you were my patient, I would start with an EKG, a complete blood count, biochemistry blood tests, and a 24-hour arterial blood pressure monitoring.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Anila Skenderi
