36 weeks and SUPER dizzy!

So far my pregnancy has been very healthy, my blood pressure has never been high, I've been trying to eat right (but let's face it, fried food is amazing), but yesterday while using the ladies' room I got very dizzy to the point of feeling like I was about to pass out (which I have never done). And then this morning I woke up feeling dizzy without moving at all, just opening my eyes, and then had to stop after trying to get to the restroom and lie down for a second. Should I be concerned? I've read this is normal during pregnancy, but for me it is so out of the ordinary. Should I call my dr??

Yes. I would call your doctor they may want to check your blood pressure again. Mine skyrocketed in a week. Maybe they'll say its normal. It doesn't hurt to call especially when you have a potentially dangerous symptom.

Call your doctor, and also drink lots of water. It's very easy for me to get dehydrated.

I would call your doctor, better be safe than sorry. How far along are you?

I had similar symptoms, except mine have mostly been in the morning and last for hours at a time. My doctor did a bunch of tests (various blood pressures, glucose screening, blood glucose test, blood tests and a few other things, etc). Some of the possibilities she was considering were anemia, blood glucose levels and pre-eclampsia. Everything, of course, came back totally normal. She suggested I invest in some thigh-high compression stockings and see if that helped.
