Yeah that happened to me today, I almost fell down.

It happens to me occasionally at random moments. I asked my doctor once, and he said it's often harmless but occasionally not harmless. Mention it to your doctor.

that made my head hurt.

Ravey · 06-03-2003, 02:15 AM

I thought I was the only one that that happened to! I told my doctor about it, and he said I might have diabetes and we took the tests, and I didn't. Then he said, it's normal, and alot of people get it, he said it's lightheadedness.

Cashodeen · 06-03-2003, 03:36 AM

Dizziness, lighheadedness, faintness, vertigo... I'm a queen of them all. Lol. Well, not exactly "The Queen," but I have had dizziness from time to time, and rarely the others. If you feel as if you'll faint, you can do the ol' head between your knees trick.

Ohp, here's what a book I have says: (For general dizziness)--"sit, close your eyes, bow your head, and breathe deeply. " But as far as your question on preventing it, I don't think there is really a way. If you're getting up too quickly, try and rise more slowly. And you can also talk to the doc (which the book also says you can do if you feel it's severe), just like BrandonS said.

(LOL, just in the middle of typing this I got dizzy after I banged up my thumb against a wall grabbing this book. Whenever I get hurt, I get dizzy or lightheaded. I think I've taught myself to do what the book tells, because I instinctively ducked my head and shut my eyes. It went away fast!)

You could be anemic, I get lightheaded if I don't take my iron, because I'm anemic, maybe you are. Or maybe you don't eat enough, a lot of times, when people don't eat they get lightheaded.

Titania · 06-03-2003, 10:15 AM

I get dizzy and kind of black out if I stand up quickly because I have really low blood pressure.
I dont know how to prevent it- if Im lying down I'll always sit for a minute before I try to stand. Taking deep breaths and closing your eyes might help too.

I get dizzy when I get up in the moning after sleeping. I tink it is because I have low blood sugar and because of that I don't have enough sugar running through my system to stimulate the energy. Someone told me to eat fruit and that would help. However, I hate most fruits so that really ddin't help me too much.
