Lightbulb Well it happend to me this morning...

I have been reading posts about people losing balance and what not after getting up too quickly. This morning I popped up like usual when the alarm clock went off. I got out of bed and headed for the bathroom to shower like any other other day, and then i noticed the doorway coming at me rather quickly LOL! i caught myself, LOL. I didnt feel like I was going to pass out or anything, just like I lost my footing VERY quickly and it was kind of hard to get it back. I stumbled for a bit. I will discuss this with my dr.

What was this again, LOW blood pressure or just me not adjusting well to lost weight? i know there s a thread somewhere but memory fails me as to who posted it...

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Kenya,
Hypotension is low blood pressure, and that sounds like what happened to you because it happened when you stood up after laying down. Your blood is spread out throughout your body and when you stood up it dropped to your legs and your head didn't get enough. If you are on BP meds then your PCP needs to adjust them. Low BP can also be caused by not getting enough fluids.

Low sugar (hypoglycemia) could make you dizzy, but it doesn't necessarily happen when you stand up. You would also be weak and shakey and wouldn't feel well until you've eaten, so I don't think its your sugar.

Be careful in the mornings!
