Dizzy spells? (Please answer)?!
Question: Dizzy spells.? (Please answer).?
When I was younger (about 11 or 12) I would always get dizzy spells, always when I was trying to sleep. I would be in bed with my eyes shut, and I literally felt like my bed was wobbling and spinning. They stopped when I was about 12, and my mum thought this happened because I got my period around the same time. But now, a few years later, I have a similar problem. Whenever I get up from a chair or my bed, I get a few second long migraine and feel really dizzy, like the room is spinning, and I can't stand straight. I have to sit down again or lean on something for about 10 seconds until it stops, then get up again slowly. This happens every time I get up, and has been happening for about a year.
I'm 14, female, healthy (no diseases/medication), normal weight, and have a healthy diet and exercise regularly. What could this be.?
Thanks :)

You can also get your blood sugar checked, which is a good idea for everyone. I assume at 14 you already know what your blood pressure is normally but it won't hurt to keep track of that. MIne is naturally low and sometimes I get spells (I drink coffee tho... I think that's my issue).
Hydrating properly is important for you too since you are active and eating things (fiber) that might take some of that water for itself to digest it...
also if you go to the doctor get your iron checked for anemia...
have you ever talked to a licensed dietician or taken a supplements.? That can help identify an imbalance as well if that's what's up.
