Has this ever happened to anyone?
I got really light headed and pale and it felt like I was going to pass out. So I laid down, and it got really hard for me to breathe, for about 5 minutes I had to take deep breaths to breathe. Now it went away. Really wierd. Just wondering if it's happened to anyone else, and what might have caused it. TIA!

Re: Has this ever happened to anyone?
It happened to me too, the other day. And it scared the #$@!&*^% out of me.
Definitely tell your doctor about it.
I have a history of fainting (not recently, but when I was a teen), so I know the signs. It happens when my blood pressure gets low -- sometimes just getting up too quickly in the morning, not eating, or being overheated (like in the shower) will do it.
The last time it happened -- TMI -- it was on the toilet -- not a place you want to pass out. But, hey, once when I was like 17 I passed out in the shower -- and my dad had to get me out  I think I would rather have drowned!!

This has happened to me a few times. I'll be fine one minute and get really light headed and warm the next. My doc advised me to eat small meals several times per day and drink at least 12 glasses of water.

Re: Has this ever happened to anyone?
I bent down to pick something up the other day and when I stood back up, I started to feel very woozy and my vision got all messed up. I couldn't see anything clearly, almost like a migraine, but much worse.
I used to faint a lot when I was younger, so I tried what I used to do, put my head between my knees  . But I couldn't get that far, so I just sat and relaxed for a few minutes.....and it gradually went away. I was definitely scared though. I have a feeling bending cut off circulation to something and caused it all.

Re: Has this ever happened to anyone?
I passed out from this while standing up-turned out it was a combination of anemia-low iron=low oxygen, low blood sugar and dehydration.
Pulse got very slow, saw black and "sparkles" and it took me a few minutes to recoup... I would call you dr anyway, just let them know what happened...
