Good day to you. Thanks for your query.
Check your grandmother blood sugar also although she is not diabetic. Also check her Blood pressure while sitting and again while standing to see if there is drop in her Blood pressure. Is she taking any blood pressure medication?
Ask her to take some rest and again check her blood pressure after half hour.
If still she is having same complaints, consult some doctor to get her examined.
