Has anybody had this ? Strange dizziness and weird feeling
Posted , 15 users are following.
I managed to pull myself together and go out ‘for an hour’ and for ‘one drink ‘ home by 9pm as I’m screwed if I don’t go to bed early .
I got a dizziness when I arrived home that was so weird thought I was going to faint ... not like vertigo at all . I then proceeded to feel ‘weird’ even when in bed and had to take 1/2 Xanax as was panicky . Almost like my mind had been taken over .
Wondered if anybody else had this ? Was I dehydrated or is this just another meno symptom ?

And the other type of dizziness I had was hot flash related
So dizziness during peri, for me...was an everyday thing forba long time in one form or another. I still get all of it...but much less frequently these days

Yes the Xanax put me asleep thank God I went to a very dark place mentally after this episode . Thought I was going to vomit... literally felt ill . I had only one drink and didn’t finish it ..... but had done a big workout before so maybe I was dehydrated . Anyway it’s awful and sure all to do with hormones dipping 🙄

Yes, Lori, too much lately. I was NEVER one to vomit. Can't tell you how many times it's happened over the last year. Sometimes it's in the evening, after a few beers. Sometimes it's in the afternoon. I drink at least a gallon of water a day. Can't believe it's dehydration! Maybe? With this menopause hell who knows??? Hope you're feeling better. Hugs!

Can you try to describe yourself? I have had weird " dizziness" on and off for a year and a half now although it has improved tremendously. Drinking makes mine worse. It cause awful anxiety. I take a low rise of slow release Xanax . Seen lots of Drs. Long story.

Hi Lori - I think it’s all part of a hot flash/flush & for me, it’s like my body gets short circuited for a bit - I generally have to go lay down after it happens cause I feel “woozy” and yes, have felt nauseous afterwards.

Hi Lori
I've had loads of different types of dizzy over the years. The one that makes me faint is generally low blood pressure. I get it when I stand up too fast, I get clammy and dizzy and it takes a heck of a lot of deep breaths to avoid hitting the deck. I suppose the main thing is not to be frightened (easier said than done). Maybe it was a combination of going out, bit anxious, not enough water and a drink. Keep practising the drinking 🍻 and keep your chin up, you're doing so well xx

I was like that for a few days. It was during flu season so I panicked, as I was away from home, and thought I was getting sick. But I never got sick, I just had those weird feelings.
