Depending on what you have going on, try abdominal compression garments. I am waiting for my appt at a dysautonomia clinic (in DECEMBER) but I've had these problems long before covid and I haven't yet gotten covid or if I did it was asymptomatic. But I wore compression tanktop and compression leggings for my dental appointment today and it helped so much. It made driving easier too because theres more blood in my brain instead of pooling in my abdomen. It helps me more than compression socks.
