Getting up to fast.?!
Question: Getting up to fast!.!?
Okay, as I was getting up after sitting on the couch for a bit, walked into the kitchen and got a really dizzy spell!. That does happen from time to time, but this time I started shaking as well!. My roommate thought I was having a seizure!. I'm just playing it off like it's nothing, but it is kind of scary, and wonder if it is anything serious!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
It could be a number of things really!.!.!. A lot of causes are trivial, whilst some rare ones can be life threatening! Are you getting enough sugars in your diet, or eating enough at all!? Are you dehydrated (Is your pee clear or yellow!?) Um, it could possibly be low blood pressure, that happens to me too!. I've passed out quite a few times and I tend to shake/ have my hands go numb!. It could be vertigo too, having to do with your inner ear fluids!. :) How bad was the shaking!? A seizure would mean you were unconscious on the floor shaking and twitching violently, and you wouldn't remember what happened!.!.!. With low BP, age and gender can be a factor!. Teenage girls tend to get it for unknown reasons, and usually outgrow it!. It's a condition called Orthostatic (Or Postural) Hypotension, which means that the blood pressure in your body drops when you stand, causing the blood to leave your brain and pool in your lower body!. Again, the causes can be trivial or something to check into!.!.!. If you're really scared, call a doc and make an appointment! :) They won't mind helping you to figure out what's wrong!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
