See doctor: this suggests either decreased blood volume (as in dehydration, blood loss, diarrhea) or effective volume (eg vessel dilated from infection, food poison, medications, alcohol, or poor heart circulation) See doctor ASAP if fluids like gatorade or soups did not help. Urgent red flags include: chest pain, shortness of breath, other neural problems, headache, nausea, blood, pain or heart/ulcer history
