Default syncope

Sorry if I post this twice. I don't see it but maybe its here. Can't remember exactly what I wrote on the previous one. I am wondering if a person can have a syncope problem but not have symptoms as severe as are written about here. I tend to have trouble sometimes standing up. I will be sitting and get a feeling of not focusing my eyes well and go to stand up and will fall over. And it seems like eating can make this happen to. I am 52 and have inner ear problems and have always blamed it on my inner ear. I tend to have lowish blood pressure in the 80-90 over the 55-65. Of course its higher when I am standing up. Usually 105 to 110 over 70.

I know dysautonomia isn't just low blood pressure it more wild fluctations as well and not rising up on standing and other stuff with the heart. I haven't noticed any heart problems. Although I have a heart murmur the doctor said the beat it is on isn't the problem beat or something like that. Anyway if anyone with knowledge about this disorder has thoughts about this I'd appreciate it. Of course I know we aren't doctors. I have had my blood pressure checked laying down and the doctor did a valsalva something. He didn't say I had dysautonima but told me I should try to go to a gym and get some shots of vitamins he wasn't really worried about it. Which was rediculous as many days I can't even walk much less go to a gym.
