I KNOW...I REALLY DO...I HAVE A SERIOUS ISSUE WITH SUCH PEOPLE THOUGH...NOT THEM...ME...THE FACT THAT IT'S ABOUT ME AND THEY ARE IN MY SPACE AND DOCTOR'S OFFICES...UGH...BUT I KNOW...I NEED TO.

I told the doctor the same thing and he said it was blood pressure dropping. If that helps you in some way. You can take pills for it

Either way be careful with this type of stuff. I watched a buddy die from a stroke maybe 2 years ago now, one minute he was there the next minute he was a vegetable

Get a female doctor there easier to deal with and much nicer:)

reply

Yep! I am a man but I've always preferred women doctors for those reasons.

I just switched from a guy who had 30 years experience to a lady who has 10...it was the right call.

reply

I do agree with this. My endocrinologist is female and very nice.

Men don't know how to look beyond the facts. Females look at you and see what you're really saying, not just the symptoms.

reply

I agree with this.

It's also about your daughter dude.

You didn't have enough oxygen delivered to your brain.

It happens, but with your recent health decisions, it's not completed abnormal.

I get that once or twice a year, If you are getting that regularly I’d follow Bloodshot’s advice and make a Doctor appointment. You are still a young man but us guys can be bullheaded about Doctors and health issues. Just go in buddy, could save your life👍

reply

If this happens a lot you really should see a doctor. It could be nothing or it could be serious. One of the reasons I try to take care of myself is because I want to live as long as possible fathering my daughter. Take care of yourself and I hope you feel better.

reply

If you get up really fast my guess is it probably takes a second or so for your blood flow to adjust. I remember feeling that sometimes as far back as when I was a teenager.

reply

Does this happen only in certain places or everywhere?

reply

I know it can be scary, but you really should get it checked out. The odds are it’s nothing at all, and when you get into the habit of regular doctor visits you’ll feel so much better.

I went several years without and I just knew they would find something in blood work or whatever, but all was good. Now I go every six months, everything is legit and it’s actually empowering in a way. Give up the cherry Cokes and get in there for a check up. They are there to help you, bro. 👍

I was getting dizzy when I ran upstairs. I googled around and it said it might be an iron deficiency. That sounds similar.
