Lightheaded

So at work after using the bathroom an overwhelming dizziness came over me. I felt so lightheaded, that I put my feet on the desk and reclined back as far as I could. . . Every couple minutes I would sit up to answer the phone, etc. before feeling like I needed to be horizontal again. This went on for 20mins before I decided to lay down. Eventually I decided I needed to go home, but knew I couldn't drive, so I got a ride. I googled my symptoms and this is called Vasovagal syncope. I am 28 weeks and 5 days. I am just wondering if anyone else experiences this and how common/uncommon it is? Will it subside? How do I keep working if this is gonna continue to happen??? -Devan

Re: Lightheaded

  • I think dizziness that requires you to leave work warrants a call to your doctor.

  • Stay off of Google and call your doctor.  I know if I get too hot or stay busy without a break this can happen, hope things get better for you and it's nothing serious.
