Definitely call your doctor and let him/her know that you fainted. Also, record your blood pressures every day until you see your doctor. Don't forget bp cuffs need to be calibrated every so often, so sometimes the readings are not accurate. Either way, call you doc so your meds can be adjusted if necessary.
talk to your doctor, and let him adjust it or change the medicine. Not a big deal, but make an appt and go in. keep a diary of the events and share it with your doctor.
