What Causes Dizziness On Standing Up, With Otherwise Normal Health Parameters?

Hi, i am a 66 yrs old male, exercise regularly, never been in the hospital. My cholesterol and sugar is normal My normal blood pressure was always 110/70, but it increased to 133/80 a few months ago, and also I feel a little dizzy when I stand up quickly. If I take some blood thinner, this symptom will go away. Is this normal or there are something I have to worry about?
