While I was at the dentist Monday, I got really light headed, thirsty, and nauseous. I figured I was just getting dehydrated and maybe laying too flat.
I just started getting the same feeling again. The strange thing is, I've been downing water all day!
I sure hope I'm not getting sick again. I would not be a jolly rodger if that were the case!!!
Re: Ooh Strange Feeling. Feeling a bit off..
Personally, I would call the doctor. That could be potentially low/high blood pressure which isn't something you'd want to mess with. At least if you call them they will tell you what to do. It could be that you're getting sick, but it could also be something else. I would go for safety.

I have the same problem and food always seem to help. I'm never hungry so I make sure to watch the clock and eat something, even just peanut butter crackers, every three hours. Also, keep some hard candy in your purse, sometimes just a small sugar boost can fix the problem.
It just sucks once the light-headedness sets in because I get naseous then too and really don't feel like eating. That's why I try to stay ahead of the game.
The thing is, I just ate less than a hour ago! Same with the last time (at the dentist).
I'm contimplating calling my doc. I hate calling over "little things" like this...but it seems that the things we all think are little tend to actually be big!
This. Or you could be having low blood sugar and need to eat something. Even if you don't feel hungry, eat something anyway. Eat a candy bar or something with a good amount of sugar in it, or something high in protein. The protein will help steady your sugars.
