My Mother is 92 years young and has had several test ran she has a very healthy heart but her blood pressure is not normal. when she starts to stand her pressure will get very very low . she has had several test laying down, sitting, standing up each # is different, is there any medical answer as to what we can have checked? Thank you for any insight you might have
Hello mention your mother has different numbers for blood pressure while lying, sitting and standing.  This is a common condition called orthostatic hypotension.  It may occur on its own, or may be associated with other conditions, mainly neurological such as Parkinson's disease. Also, some medications can cause this side effect. She should not have any sudden changes in position, and should always be assisted when getting out of bed to not fall. I would suggest she get a check-up and see if a reversible cause is found. Best regards
