I'm feelin' kinda dizzy and lightheaded.

[Snoggera]

What would cause that?

Blood sugar's okay. I ate right today. Got a little exercise.

What was going on when you felt dizzy and lightheaded?

:)

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

1. If you just exercised, check your blood pressure

[nini]

2. have you drank enough fluids today?

I'd say blood pressure too ..

[Snoggera]

12. I do have weird fluctuations in blood pressure

maybe that's it.

Thanks for your idea.

3. It usually means I'm having an orgasm.

However, if that were indeed the cause of your lightheaded dizziness, I daresay you'd know it! ;)

9. Be certain to replace those fluids!

4. Pregnant?

n/t

5. Have you eaten *recently*?

I am prone to vasovagal syncope associated with hypoglycemia.

That means if I don't eat every couple hours or so, I'll faint if I bend down and stand up rapidly because the drop in blood pressure will make my vasovagal nerve go wonky.

Do you get migraines? They can happen without the pain, but just with the neurologic symptoms.

Got a fever?

Those are the usual culprits when I'm dizzy, anyway.

6. that's how I felt the day before this lousy flu hit

now I just feel shitty.

[Snoggera]

10. uh oh

dizzy today, flu tomorrow?

(hope you get feeling much better soon. Chicken soup. It's good for what ails you)

7. I spent a day feeling like that recently

--it got progressively worse until, coming in from running some errands, I ran to the sink and barfed. Then I started to feel better. It might have been food poisoning, or a "bug"

on edit: meant to say: food was completely unappetizing all day. all I could take was some water, and that was when I barfed.

8. Have you been hitting the chronic?

It's been known to have that effect on some people.

[VOX]

11. Have any allergies? Any pressure in the ears/sinuses?

That will cause dizziness and lightheadedness, and it certainly is the season for it.

[Snoggera]

13. Wow, thanks for all the thoughts

I may have a combination of things going on: blood pressure messed up due to exercise, allergies (been bad for weeks now) and not enough intake of fluids.

Thanks everyone. I have to be more careful! Feeling pretty good now.

14. Change in the weather?

Maybe pressure in your ears.
