A member asked:

I am 30 yrs old and everytime i stand after sitting for awhile i get dizzy to the point of falling, i am in general good health. should i be worried?

Dizzy: Great question. Could be anything. I would go see your doctor for a complete check up. Make sure they check your blood pressure lying seated and standing
