I am a 33 year old female. I have a 16month old son and when I was pregnant with him I hate pre-eclampsia but since shortly after his birth my BP returned to normal....typically 114/62 Here is my question... The last few days I have been having dizzy spells. Not like spinning dizzy. But almost like a weird feeling and lightheadedness almost as if I wasn't myself. Hard to explain. Anyway, it was only a time or two but then last night at work I felt that way the whole entire evening. A co-worker and I went to the floors together in fear that I would fall over in the hallway. So, we decided to take my BP. First it was 150/85 (taken immediately after walking) Then I sat down for about 15 minutes, took it again and it was 155/78. Sat down for a while longer and tried the other arm and it was then much lower...can't recall (but in the norm). But I still felt "weird" This morning I went to the grocery store and felt dizzy again and took my BP and it was 140/102. What is going on???
