Hello
Welcome to Health care magic.

I reviewed your history. It seems from the history that you are having persistent drowsiness.
My answer to your question is as follows.
1. The drowsiness in your case is probably because of low blood pressure.
2. The low blood pressure and its cause needs to be evaluated and treated accordingly.
3. As of now my advice is to increase the intake of water and other fluids and intake of salts this will help you to increase the low blood pressure.

Hope this answers your question.
Do write back to me for further questions.

With regards
I find this answer helpful
