Hello, my name is Jeremy and im posting
for my girlfriend. Shes stubborn and wont
see a doctor, but maybe she doesnt even
need to.
Well, this has only happend a few times
and last night after sex it happend really
bad. The second after we had sex she said
she felt really dizzy and light headed,
she got extremely tired and could barely
talk to me. Any other times it happens she
just gets light headed for a minute. I
texted her today asking how she felt and
she said shes still "kind of" dizzy. I
dont know what it could be from. She
usually goes to bed early and we had sex
at 9:30 so i dont know if she was tired
and it wore her out or if maybe we were
going to fast? Any help would be greatly
appreciated.
thank you!
-jeremy

I think I would have her check it again.
Low blood pressure can cause her to be
light headed. She might need to get her
sugar checked too.

actually, im sorry. Her blood pressure is
fine, her blood suger is really high.
Thats what the doctor said a while ago.
She doesnt really eat full meals, she will
just eat when she is hungry and thats
lasts a while so that could be pretty
unhealthy. Also, she drinks alot of soda,
most of it being diet soda now, but still
sugar is sugar. She needs to start eating
better and go back to the gym.

Is she on any medication for her sugar?
If not, since her diet doesn't seem to be
that healthy, the condition may have
worsened. She may be a full blown
diabetic now. I would try and get her
back to the doctor to be checked for
diabetes.

The light headedness after sex? I'd say
good job! Hyperventilation can cause you
to be very light headed. I actually did
pass out once during sex, and had one of
the greatest orgasms of my life . but the blood
sugar thing is very important to address.
She should have that taken care of very
soon. If the dizziness does not go away,
a number of factors could be contributing
to this:
she agreed to stop drinking sodas and
eating junk food. Its not all her fault,
its all her mom buys. I told her to start
drinking more water and propels and start
drinking juices and vitamin waters. Shes
also going to start packing lunches for
school.
I just dont know if i should be "scared"
or not.
thank you for all your help!

She doesn't have to completely give up
soda and junk. She just needs to eat it
in moderation. I was diagnosed with
hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) 2 years
ago. I really have to watch my sugar
intake, and eat a small meal or snack
every couple of hours. If she really
enjoys her soda, have her switch to diet
soda. It takes a while to get used to the
taste, but after a few months, diet will
taste just like regular. Be careful of
the juices too...they contain a lot of
natural sugars that can mess with the
blood sugar level. If she starts feeling
shaky, tell her to eat something that is
high in protein (peanuts, peanut butter,
cheeses...), that always helps me.
