sweet 98 Posted August 6, 2012 Ok this past month I started with dizziness when i stand. Recently I had to go to the hospital because I had a severe head ache on my left side. I fell to the floor and next thing i know I'm bleeding profusely. I don't recall hitting my head, but the Dr. At the emergency seemed to have thought I blacked out and hit my head on something, which caused a concusion. A CT scan was done and everything seemed normal. My headaches got better with time. However, yesterday I began with the headaches again. And today the dizziness started. I feel like all the blood rushes to my head, and I'm not fully conscience for a few seconds. I have to sit down until that feeling goes away. But it seems to be only when I stand up. My Dr. Has ordered blood work and all the results come back normal. I don't know what's going on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LosingItForMe2011 320 Posted August 6, 2012 Do you take BP meds? I know I do and have to watch it because I've had that issue before when I didn't need the meds anymore and was taking them. I know have a wrist BP machine to monitor it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
