    it is the sudden drop in your blood pressure, referred to as syncope, some time fainting can result, upon falling the blood pressure will normalize again. some times this is a sign of an adnormal heart rhythum. if this is a frequent occurance you should see your M.D. If not then it may just happen from time to time, in that case, if your having one of thoses days ,it is best to raise you BP by pumping your leggs before you stand and remember that you cannot just jump-up
