TweetDang that sucks bro. Sometimes it hits you and you dont have time to react, you wake up on the floor with busted face. If someone ever starts to feel dizzy, best advice is to get down on a knee, as close to the floor as possible

Tweetyes not a good expereince, especially in front of my kids.

Tweetblood sugar is one that can get ya

TweetDrop in blood sugar can cause this for sure. A few weeks ago I experienced some issues but my BP was up and Blood Sugar Dropped. I sounded drunk until I got some food in me. All better now. Take it easy

TweetI'm on board with everyone else...low blood sugar possibly, but I've never went out like that...usually just dizzy until I eat a lil bit. Don't let it go though bro, have a second Dr. run more tests. Fallin out like that is not good

Tweetmy dad has diabetes and blacks out and falls all the time

TweetSome good info

Dizziness when getting up from lying down is called postural or orthostatic hypotension. It can occur when the brain receives incorrect information about the body's position in relation to its surroundings and movements. While dizziness is usually not serious, talk to a health care provider if you experience dizziness often. It could signal an underlying health condition.Types

Types of dizziness include vertigo, dysequilibrium, light-headedness and mixed dizziness, according to the Merck Manual of Health and Aging. Vertigo is the false sense of motion or spinning. Dysequilibrium is a sense of unsteadiness or loss of balance that involves the legs or trunk. Light-headedness is a feeling that fainting may occur soon. This type of dizziness usually occurs when a person gets up quickly after sitting or lying down for awhile. Mixed dizziness is a type of dizziness that does not fit in the other categories.

Mechanism

A dramatic fall in systolic blood pressure can cause you to feel dizzy after standing up too quickly, according to MayoClinic.com. Normally, gravity causes blood to collect in your legs when standing. To ensure enough blood returns to the brain, your body increases your heart rate and constricts blood vessels. In people with postural hypotension, this mechanism fails.
Causes

Postural hypotension can be due to dehydration, prolonged bed rest, pregnancy, diabetes, heart problems, burns, excessive heat, large varicose veins and certain neurological disorders, according to MayoClinic.com. Drugs used to treat high blood pressure, antidepressants, drugs used to treat Parkinson's disease and medications used to treat erectile dysfunction can also be to blame. Postural hypotension can even occur in young, otherwise healthy people, and is generally harmless.
Prevention

To prevent dizziness when getting up from lying down, try moving slowly, MayoClinic.com recommends. Before getting up, breathe deeply for a few minutes. If the problem occurs when you get up from sleeping, try lying with the head of your bed slightly elevated. If you begin to get symptoms while standing, overlap your thighs and squeeze, or place one foot on a ledge or chair and lean forward as far as you can.
Treatment

Mild dizziness rarely requires treatment. If your dizziness bothers you and is caused by medications, your doctor may change the dose or type of medication. If your dizziness when standing up is recurrent, your doctor may prescribe the medication fludrocortisone.
