blood pressure prob

[zxcv]

my blood pressur when lying down is 140/90 heart rate is 70beats per/min
when i stand up i feel faint... when standing my blood pressure is now 75/50 and heart rate is 75 beats per/min...
can u explain these observations in terms of autonomic function?

is this a homework question? A rather strange way of asking about personal experience

And your only q on answerbank

I think you need to research on the internet, there are plenty of helpful sites out there.

The first part of your question sounded personal, but the last sentence sounds like homework.

I have no idea about the circumstances of your question.

Human beings had to adapt to the upright position and there are mechanism in the autonomic nervous system that allows this to happen.

Perhaps more information from your goodself might help.

Have you finished your homework yet? If not,try looking up postural hypotension !!

Keep lying down, you are obviously healthier that way
