Low blood pressure from PD

 I blacked out 7 times recently. I think due to a new medication.  So on Monday I saw a new MDS. She said the orthostatic hypotension is very serious and put it at the top of my list.. prescribed a med to raise blood pressure. #1  priority. My concern is will it give me high blood pressure if my b.p. is normal?

Orthostatic hypotension — also called postural hypotension — is a form of low blood pressure that happens when standing after sitting or lying down. Orthostatic hypotension can cause dizziness or lightheadedness and possibly fainting.

Orthostatic hypotension can be mild. Episodes might be brief. However, long-lasting orthostatic hypotension can signal more-serious problems. It's important to see a health care provider if you frequently feel lightheaded when standing up.
