Blood Pressure and G Resiliance

I have low blood pressure and occasionally almost pass (go faint and dizzy) out when I stand up fast, particularly if I've done a large amount of exercise and/or not eaten for a while. Does this make me physiologically unsuited to aerobatics? Is there anything I can do about it?

Along similar lines, what is an ideal physique for high G resilience?
Why aren't pressure suits worn in competition?
