[QUOTE="))Denise((, post: 287018, member: 27532"] Sorry I didn't have time earlier to say why I thought it may be low blood pressure. A few months ago I was out shopping in an indoor shopping centre and came over all funny. I felt hot, sweaty, dizzy and not quite right and wanted to sit down. The next thing I knew I had fainted and they had called the first aider. I thought it may be a hypo, but not likely as my breakfast is my most carby of the day. I treated it as a hypo with a third of a bottle of normal coke. I had to get my OH to collect me as I still didn't feel too good. Once I got home, I took my blood pressure and it was low. I googled for reasons why I had felt like I did and the most common answer that came up was low blood pressure from being dehydrated. I'd not drunk much (water) the day before. Diddie, I notice that you had been doing Zumba, could this have contributed to you being dehydrated and coupled with your normal low blood pressure. Just a thought. [/QUOTE]
