      A little light headed is perhaps a bit of an understatement to what I feel sometimes. Sometimes it’s “op, almost lost consciousness there for a second”

        Drink more water, get sufficient salt. This happens to me sometimes if I forget those and I’m a 6’/200lb dude. It’s pretty embarrassing having to sit down quickly on a diirty work floor to avoid slamming face first unconscious into said floor.

          Can confirm. I have low blood pressure (runs in the family), and I always need to make sure I’m drinking a lot of water and consuming enough salt or I’ll get crazy vertigo after standing up. Stay safe people!
