Passed out Saturday

My dad brought some food out for my son and I had been napping. But I got up and came to the kitchen just out of my bedroom. I didn't get up too fast cause when i do that i usually get dizzy and the room spins. Well talk to him just a min. and he turns around to put the food in the fridge. And BAM I hit the floor. No dizzy feeling, the room didn't turn black just BAM I hit the floor. I have been having some low blood pressure so I think thats what caused it. I'm going to ask the dr. about it when I go back.
Anyone else done this?

hey holli
if your appointment is not for a bit I would call. don't wait too long. IF it happens again call before your appointment. That could be dangerous.

 Sounds like to me you suffer from orthostatic hypotension. Especially the way you described feeling light headed when you stand up too fast. It can also cause you to pass out. I'd definitely talk to my doctor about it and also go from a sitting to standing position at a slower pace :)

My doctor told me the same thing and I tried it and it helped a little. My girlfriend told me to lay off the Margaritas. Havn't tried that yet....John
