It is quite common if you do stand up too fast but if you arent standing up fast it could be a number of things:

- Low blood sugar level

- Low blood pressure

- Some heart problems

- Pregnancy

- Vertigo

- Inner Ear problem

- Drug use

- Brain disorder

- Anaemia

Just to name a few. I wouldn't be too worried if you only feel dizzy for a quick second after standing up but if it is for quite some time and you find you are getting dizzy at other times I would recommend you see you G.P.

I've never had this problem until lately. I'm 68 and started using PB meds about 2.5 yrs ago. I sometimes check my own PB and have noted lately it's lower than average. Maybe averaging 100/65. This evening I stood up quickly and nearly had to drop to my knees to keep from falling, but recovered. It's scary. Before the last few years I can't remember having this problem. I don't drink the amount of water I should. Maybe that contributes, but have aannual physical coming up in 3 weeks and it will be a topic of conversation with doctor. I think I'm in good health overall, but one needs to be noticing changes, especially at my age. N

Yes, it happened to me, but i was also so exhausted and sleeping/laying down all the time. When you stand up the blood rushes out of your head to the rest of your body causing light headedness. But I know i was also very dehydrated which might not have anything to do with it but drink lots of water/juice!

Possibly high blood pressure. Check with your physician.

I get the same problem. Generally this is due to low blood pressure, if you stand up suddenly you feel dizzy. Stand up slowly. And get this checked out, just in case its something else.

Can you get tss when you use tampons but you faint and vomit before you use them during your period?

Yes, you can get TSS whenever you use tampons. If you're already feeling faint and vomiting then it may be harder to spot TSS symptoms; although with TSS as well as feeling faint you'd have a high fever. If you're ill it may be a good idea to avoid tampons this time, if you always feel faint and sick during menstruation you need to talk to your doctor about investigating why this happens.
