Hello, I wonder if anyone else has experienced the same? When i go from lying down/bending over and come back up, I get really very dizzy and headachy. If I read to my daughter in her bed with her and get up, I have to put my head back down as I have gone very dizzy. I also just looked up just now with my head back and when I looked straight ahead again, I had the same feeling, very woozy and dizzy.
Is this thyroid related? Anyone else experienced this?
Thanks
Sounds like a blood pressure problem, orthostatic hypotension.
This might be the problem :

You didn't say whether your heart speeds up or not. But tachycardia is the medical name for a fast heart rate (100+ beats per minute).
Thank you. It says that POTS is quite common with chronic fatigue syndrome which is what I have been diagnosed with…hmm, food for thought.
Could be thyroid too then?
I had this really bad before I was diagnosed. It got a bit better when I started thyroid hormone replacement, but only really went away when I started supplementing with B12. Have you had your B12 and folate tested?
Low B12 and/or folate and/or low vitamin D
When were these last tested
What vitamin supplements are you currently taking
Hey RachelP03 I get it regularly when changing doses.Had it a fair but back in February/March when I upped my dose of levothyroxine.Was getting it last year when the doc reduced my dosage.Getting it now whilst trialling T3 and also when I was on 125mcg of levo alone although not as bad.Will only shower as when I have a warm bath then stand up it’s grab anything to hand moment to steady myself.Then it’s the dizzy sickly feeling as your hearts starts going fast and thumbing then the cold sweat.I have been noticing a slight pattern with mine
