He does not have any pain. Just the drop in BP and sometimes gets a little wobbly. The cardiologist decreased his BP medication. He has cardiovascular disease and a slow heart rate. After eating his body directs blood to his digestive system. That causes the drop in blood pressure for a few hours. He has a low heart rate anyway and his heart has to try to speed up and try to get the BP back up. Doctor is doing more tests and says he may need a pacemaker.
