Dizziness

[IceProdInc]

Have anyone ever experienced dizziness when standing up for about 1 to 3 seconds , ive had all blood test and ekg and all is normal , is this serious?

This happens when I stand up too quickly. Also I’ve noticed it happens more often during certain times of the year. My father also experiences the same. I don’t think much of it as it does not last long but perhaps I should 🤷🏼‍♀️

Yes I have...I believe it is a change in blood pressure with moving to fast. They say just take it a little slower. I would watch my salt intake as well. 🙂

IceProdlnc this can happen when you have postural blood pressure changes occur.

I had that at one time (due to medications) Having my b/p measured while lying down, sitting and then standing up gave the doctor some idea of the fluctuation of my pressure.

Once placed on the proper medication, I haven't had a problem. xx

I'm not a doctor but I have been to a doctor twice in a decade and the doctors said there is absolutely nothing wrong wt me. First time I decided to stop taking coffee to c if it was related but dizziness did not stop so I went back to my demon coffee. I feel dizzy a lot and I am not seeing any doctor anymore bcz they do all kinds of tests and come back with nothing important, it u know what I mean. So u need not to worry about it at all atleast not for now

Some drugs you may be taking can cause this to happen. Check "side effects" with Google. Another possibility is a sinus infection. Get a saline spray at the store and use it a few times a day if you think you may have sinus problems. The doctors don't always mention these things.

Yup, dr says drink more water. Psych dr decreased 1 med a bit. PCP said to just sit for a moment or 2, something about your has to circulate to legs first before you stand up.
