Postural hypotension

Question

Asked for Female, 27 Years

Hi, I have giddiness when I stand up after sitting for a while. Sometimes it's so intense that I almost lose my conscious. I was diagnosed with postural hypotension and wasn't given with any medication. But, I get this quite frequently in the last one week. Could you please let me know if this is something to be concerned? Thanks, Shwetha
