Dizzy.....

So I was driving alone this morning and got so dizzy I had to pull over in a grocery store parking lot and my husband had to come get me. I walked in store first and tried getting some juice and snack but it didn't help and I was so dizzy. It was so scary. I had just checked my blood pressure this morning and it was good. Maybe sugar dropped? Not sure. I ate a big breakfast.

Edit: I do have a call in to my doctor to be safe.

    I was experiencing some wicked bad dizzy spells before I started chugging water constantly. I have been much less faint and spend much more time in the bathroom since.

    I bet it was sugar. This happened to me at my house once. What had you eaten before this incident?

    You could be low on iron, I was low with my first and I had dizzy spells. Or have you had a recent cold, if so might be a bit of vertigo brought on by sinus pressure.

    I've had a few spells that were probably low blood pressure. In those instances, I would get up too quickly usually and get lightheaded. This was straight up DIZZINESS. Im betting blood sugar. I made French toast and bacon this morning. I did soak my French toast in syrup. I'm betting my sugar spiked and then crashed. If there's a symptom of pregnancy I'm gonna have it!

    Big breakfasts do that to me big time. I think all of the blood goes to your stomach. Try smaller meals. It worked for me!

    The same thing has been happening to me.  Both times I have been home, trying to get ready to go out, and I get the worst dizzy feeling, like I'm gonna pass out. Last night was so bad...I thought I was gonna be sick from it.

    Sounds like blood sugar and make sure you are drinking more water.
