"Finally, if my bp drops to 60/40 is it okay to eat, say a sliver if cheese, etc to raise it enough that I can stand up without fainting? "
I think that would be extremely unwise - far better to ask your doctor for a script for Florinef (this steroid makes the body retain fluid and salt, and thus prevents the hypotension caused by MAOI drugs)
Provided there isnt any pressing need to get the dose up quickly, I'd raise it by 10mg per week.
