Today I decided to garden. Its about 80 degrees out not horrible. I pulled some weeds(not many) then went inside drenched in sweat. Had something to drink and threw that up. I felt like passing out so I sat in an ice cold bath and started to feel better.

Went back out 2 hours for 15 mins and planted 3 plants/put down some mulch and same thing happened.

Does this happen to anyone?..im not sure if im not hydrated or what but my face is still red and warm(not sunburn) an hour later

Yup- happens to me too, especially when gardenng.

I chalk it up to dehydration, having the blood rush to the head when you bend over and (possibly) bending at the hip- compressing the stomach.

I'm 8 weeks out and it happens less and less- the first few weeks It happened a lot and was kinda freaky!

Drink lots of Water if you're outside, try to work in the shade or wear a hat and minimize the bending.

For what it's worth, I get the hot flashes & nausea mostly when my tummy is full.

I am only 11 days out and I get the overheating, sweats, upset tummy if I walk too much or am up too much.... I find it hard to walk more than 10-15 mins or so without this happening. :-( kinda sucks.
