Hello thanks for asking from HCM for your health related queries

I can understand your concern. Sudden changes in blood pressure can even occur during change in posture or in standing position after sitting for long. So I would advise you to visit a doctor to rule out any cardiac cause of your symptoms. Abrupt change in BP, fatigue, irregular heart beats etc can also occur in anxiety and need proper evaluation. In anxiety palpitations, tiredness etc symptoms are seen. If everything comes normal then visit a psychiatrist for help. Medicines like Clonazepam, Alprazolam etc when taken on SOS basis can help to control the anxiety. Sertraline, Fluoxetine, Paroxetine etc are commonly used anti-anxiety drugs. Visit a psychiatrist for help.

Thanks, Hope this helps you. Take care
