From what I know, there aren't many nutritional solutions to low blood pressure beyond what your physician has already recommended. Just be sure to balance your electrolytes and stay well-hydrated. You might want to consider eating more bananas, citrus fruits, green leafy vegetables, dairy, nuts, and whole grains to ensure you are getting enough, and don't be afraid of adding more salt to your diet if your intake is currently pretty low.
Other than that, have you ruled out underlying heart, blood, or nerve problems? I've read that these can be the more dangerous causes of low blood pressure.
Have you ruled out anemia?
