Dizzy Spells???
Posted: 12-04-06 22:15pm

Any of you ladies get some slight dizziness at the beginning of your pregnancy? I mean, very early on???


I am smarter than to believe that my recent dizzy spells could possibly be b/c I am pregnant (sense the high hopes here! Lol!), but I have no other idea's what it could be from. I am not sick, do not have an ear infection, no water in my ear, no tooth problems, etc....... I've been having them for almost 2 weeks now. I've also been having some slight cramping as well, but nothing like period cramps, and I don't think i'm set to ovulate for another week or so??!!! Any thought's as to what's going on?


No idea when af is due next.......Maybe around christmas eve or day? (sorry, but with the irregular cycles, I have no idea when the next one's coming?!) on cd31 today. Sooooo confused! Temp is also still pretty low...... 36.28 yesterday and this morning. Rolling Eyes

You could be anemic.....You should go to the doctor.

Thanks foxy - I don't think i'm anemic....I just had a wack load of blood tests done, but you never know??? If it keeps up the rest of this week, then I will be calling to make an app't for early next week.

Doesn't feel good, that's for sure. I am taking ovulex, but the dizzy spells started about 4 days before I even took my first ovulex pill??!!! Hmmmmmmmmm...............

There is a possiblity of low blood sugar. I get that all the time. Normal blood tests would not detect that-only a glucose tolerance test would. Are you getting enough protein? Try eating six small meals a day.

Thanks for your thoughts monkeygirl!!! I definatley don't eat enough during the day (which I know is b-a-a-a-d!!!), but I just recently had my blood sugar levels tested and my thyroid (for other tests and symptoms i've been having), and they came back ok.
The past 3 days, i've been feeling like I could fall asleep right then and there at work, and the dizziness / light-headed feeling does not help.....It's all such a strange feeling??!!!
I think I will be calling my doctor on monday to get an app't to see him - I just hate going when there's not much they can do, except more blood work and check for an ear infection - which I doubt I have!!!!
Better safe than sorry though huh?!
Thanks for your help Smile
