What Causes Extreme Tiredness And Sleep Soon After Sitting?

I have had my blood pressure taken today... the reading was 100/56. I have been suffering from a tiredness to the extreme of thinking I am becoming narcoleptic. as long as my body is in motion, i am fine... but as soon as I have a moment to sit down, I can fall asleep at the drop of a dime. does this have anything to do with my low blood pressure?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. Your problem can be due to low blood pressure you have. Perfusion to internal organs including brain can be low in case of low blood pressure. You can take more fluids and adequate salt to increase your blood pressure. An Echo cardiography should be done in case your blood pressure is not increasing by such measures.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
