Question:

Why do i feel dizzy,blurred vision and headache when i stand up?

i feel this way after i been laying down and try to get up fast and walk around. i also feel this way when i go on roller coasters. sometimes i black out for a second or two. is there anything i can do or take for this?


Answers:

Sometimes while laying down, especially with your feet elevated(head below the feet in the same plane) blood will run to lower elevations. Getting up fast forces the blood out of your head and back into lower extremeties causing a "head rush" and sometimes black out, worse passing out. You could also possibly have low blood sugar if very minimal time laying down
