to the person that said she was a nurse telling this girl she is having migraines is absurd. You probably are having either low sugar or low blood pressure. or Hypoglycemia or Hypotension. Please consult your doctor to be sure. Increase your meal intake to 6 small meals day. Balanced with nutrious protein, iron, and calcium. Good Luck!
P.s. I am a Nurse.
Migraines what the heck? *scratching chin*

Of coarse this Is normal, sometimes when I go to the movies, I have to step over the crowd, as there all laying on the floor after standing up at the finish of the film, I prefer to stand through the entire movie, so this wont happen.
I'm thinking you should see a doc, you might have some serious problems, like blood pressure issues

You have a blood clot. The exact same thing happened to me at work. I went to the emergency room at Kaiser and thought they were just going to give me a pill or a shot and ended up being operated on two hours later because I had no pulse on the right side of my body. Get checked out right now, do not wait. You are valuable to the world and the people around you that care for you.

That could be several things: Dehydration, low blood pressure, perhaps a nutritional or blood sugar deficit. Try drinking more water and look at what you're eating. You'll probably outgrow it eventually: I did. Meanwhile, try not to stand too quickly, and make sure to have something steady to hold onto.
Good luck!

You should have it checked on, but a lot of people get light-headed when they stand up too quickly. I get light-headed even if I don't stand up quick. It has to do a lot with the blod flow to your brain, and you could have a problem if you aren't exaggerating what happens. Talk to your doctor about it if you are honestly worried.

When that happens to me its a good indication that my sugar is low.. You could be hypoglycemic. Do you eat right? Try eating several small meals a day. Also a dr is the best answer. Go see your primary.

Migraines! Lay off the coffee and chocolate! When they come on take Tylenol for migraines. Good Luck!

You are tired and you may take a rest... Consult your doctor for check-up.
