Why do you feel all dizzy and lightheaded when your DONE being sick and are feeling better again?

Question

I no longer have the fever and all the stuff that goes with the flu but my house is now a wreck from the kids from being sick for 2 days and although I feel well enough to start cleaning I am so dizzy and weak I cant do it without really hating it and running out of breath and feeling like I'm gonna pass out.

Answer 1

It is simply because you have been sick for a few days, your body is week and you are probably a bit dehydrated. Normally when someone is sick, they don't eat as well as when they are healthy. Take a day to recover, get plenty to eat to build up your strenght and drinkl lots of water ot gatorade to replinish your body. Should pass before you know it...

Answer 2

Anemia, low blood pressure, or low blood sugar. How do you feel right before you pass out? Irritated? Jittery? Nauseous? Weak? Hungry? Sweaty? It sounds more like blood sugar problems because you said it happens in the morning. Try eating a protein rich diet especially for breakfast- make some eggs and bacon and a piece of toast for breakfast. Use Smuckers sugar free jelly and drink water instead of milk or juice. Try and see if it that helps. Then bring a fold over sandwich and eat it right before the class you usually pass out in. If it helps then you should probably see an endocrinologist for hypoglycemia.

Answer 3

also consider that when you have been inactive and laying in bed for a few days, your blood pressure also adjusts and may be lower than when you are normally active. Then when you are feeling better and get up and moving around again your body has to readjust your blood pressure and it can leave you with that dizzy feeling or what you might call a "head rush" when standing too quickly.

Answer 4

could be the medicine you took, could be lack of food and there for energy, you could still be stuffy which will cause you to be light headed, also it takes about 1 week to fully recover from the symptoms of a flu, sometimes longer. you need to regain your strength slowley, your body was working to hard to fight the virus, so will be run down for a while. give the cleaning a break for now, and take it easy.

Answer 5

i can't spell the word but it its something called infantygo. An ear infection that does that to you. I get it every time i get sick. You can get another anti-biotic, or just ride it out. it usually last for about a week. If this is the first time its ever happened to you, i would double check w/ a doctor and maybe get a blood test for mono.

Answer 6

I went through the same thing, your body has been fighting off the flu for awhile. So now your body is weak from all the fighting you need to get rest.

Answer 7

It's probably the medication you took for it. It's called the lightheaded/disconnected head feeling. It will wear off. Makes ya feel funny though. Best wishes to feelin better soon. :)

Answer 8

you probably became dehydrated with your flu.A fever,diarrhea or vomiting can cause dehydration,resulting in a decreased blood volume,hence low blood pressure,hence lack of oxygen to the brain,hence dizziness.Try to hydrate yourself with water and fruit juices,avoid caffeine,coffee.If you are not better in a couple of days,see your doc.

Answer 9

sounds like heat stroke. drink plenty of water and if that doesn't help, call the doc.
