That sounds really frustrating — managing blood pressure when it swings too low can feel just as worrying as when it's too high. Feeling dizzy and "crappie" (totally valid description, by the way) is your body's way of saying something needs adjusting.

There isn't a widely available implanted device that automatically regulates blood pressure in the way you're describing. However, the good news is that blood pressure medications can be carefully adjusted by a cardiologist to find the right balance. A reading of 99/67 while on Lisinopril suggests the dose may need reviewing. Some important things to discuss with your cardiologist soon:

- Dose adjustment — 5mg of Lisinopril may still be too much given your current readings
- Timing of medication — sometimes splitting doses or changing when you take it can help
- Dizziness when standing — this can be a sign of orthostatic hypotension, which your doctor should know about
- Never stop medication without guidance — even if you're feeling dizzy, always consult your cardiologist before making changes

Please don't avoid taking your medication out of fear — instead, contact your cardiologist as soon as possible to discuss these symptoms. Getting this balance right is very manageable with the right medical support.
