Dizzy/light headed

[mrspost08]

This afternoon I went for a walk. When I came back I felt tired & hot. It's in the 80s. I drank some water, sat down & then I started feeling dizzy. I ate some nuts which did nothing. My sugar levels are fine. I had to go lay down in bed because I was getting really dizzy.
Anyone else experience this?

My Dr explained it as 'low blood pressure'... which is bad in my case because my bp is already low. Usually water & sitting in air conditioning helps.

I get this sometimes - it has just been low BP for me. I've upped both my water and sodium at the recommendation of my midwife and that has helped a little.

I didn't think of low BP. Mine is already low so I bet that's it. That makes me feel better.

I have not experienced this though I just wanted to say feel better!

I get this, but mine is not low blood pressure, because well I have high blood pressure. But they have said that I seem to sensitive to blood pressure changes do I am guessing that's what it is. Glad you seem to have figured out it was your low blood pressure.

I have this problem even while not pregnant after exercise. If I were running, and then slowed to a walk I would get dizzy- so during that transition I had to walk with my arms above my head. It was more of an issue on hot days. I also have low blood pressure.

I get little waves of this. And it totally sucks. I usually drink some water and hang on to my chair until it passes

I had this one night where nothing seemed to help. It did resolve itself, though. I hope you're feeling better soon.

Thanks everyone. I'm fine today like nothing happened. Strange.
