Brief Answer:
Increase fluid and added salt...

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

I understand your concern. Some people have low blood pressure and live with it despite the values are so low and some other people would be in shock with so low pressure. My suggestion is to visit a cardiologist and check up your heart. It is always better to make a proper examination and exclude any kind of pathology. But in most cases the reason for low blood pressure is not found.

Until then, try to intake enough fluids, 1.5-2 L per day. You should also eat a little bit more salten food. Try also to excercise, but only as much as you can and very light.

I hope this answer was helpful to you.
