Post Low Blood Pressure Symptoms?

I havent had my blood pressure checked, but I was wondering what the symptoms of LBP are. I often am dizzy when I stand up, I bruise *very* easily, I am allllways sluggish and sleepy. I have heard that antianxiety drugs like paxil can lower blood pressure and I recently have started 30mg paxil daily. since starting I noticed the constant drowsiness and lack of energy. Also, constant yawning. Do you think this is low blood pressure?

Some of the symptoms that you list are consistent with what one might experience with low blood pressure. The best suggestion I can come up to answer your question, is to monitor your blood pressure at various times throughout the day. That will give you some idea of where you are with respect to high/low readings.
