Overcome with dizziness whilst driving home yesterday after work

I pulled off the road lest I fainted.
Extreme light headedness and nausea.
Symptoms eased slightly, enough for me to drive the further 2km to home.
WebMD noted it could be low blood pressure, vertigo, inner ear infection…
Awoke this morning feeling okay.

Hope you are feeling better today go gently .

Thank you. No negative symptoms today, so far. :slightly_smiling_face:

Best see the Doc, we don’t want you collapsing at the wheel!!

Add low blood sugar to your list Bretrick, especially if your job is physical. Make sure you are getting enough carbs…
A couple of times in the past I have had similar experiences after a long or hard run…Kendal Mint Cake had me up and running in no time…

OGFs right. I was diagnosed with diabetes 12 months ago and my main symptom was dizziness so it worth getting checked.

A visit to the doctor might be in order.
