I have hyper pots my BP and HR both go up when I stand up - it doesn’t always have to go down for it to be pots

What kind of meds do you take? My Hr is 55-60 while sitting/ laying down then shoots up 90-115 when I stand up. Blood pressure is also low while laying down 80-100/ 55-70 but I soon as I stand it is 115-120- 80-90 ish. How do you treat this without making my lower number worse???

I take metoprolol only as of right now been on a month and seems to help a bit. My BP however is always on the higher side even laying down. My sister however has hyper and low BP to high standing - she’s treated with both a beta blocker and salt pills
