Suggest Treatment For LBP And Drowsiness
I am a 24 year old female; I have been suffering from the problem of low blood pressure. If I skip any time of meal, or get tense on any issue my blood pressure goes down, I feel dizzy all the day long, I am very lethargic in activities, have problem of drowsiness. I have been visiting many doctors but no getting an achievement. I am not active enough to work hard, I get tired after walking a little.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
You would need to ensure that you use enough fluids and eat an appropriate diet to avoid the decrease in blood pressure since these are your aggravating factors.
Anemia is also a cause for fatigue and drowsiness. This refers to low red cells count and would be reflected in a low hemoglobin.
A complete blood count would be able to check for this.
I hope this helps
