Well, here we are. I guess that it was destined to come to this.

Orthostatic hypotension can be common, but should be taken seriously, especially if you have frequent episodes.
Talk to your doctor, they will perform some very simple tests and probably find out the root cause and address it.
...blood tests? I am very afraid of needles.
Blood pressure first to confirm that your pressure drops.
Then, to find out why, yeah, maybe draw some blood. You may be consistently dehydrated, your electrolytes may be off, they have to test.
Trust me, a needle in the arm is a quick pinch and over soon. A faceplant at the bottom of a set of stairs is broken facial bones and REAL pain for months. See your doc.
