A member asked:

I got dizzy in the shower because the water was too hot and i fell. i blacked out for 0.5 second and when i opened my eyes the shower curtain was spin?

Low Blood Pressure: If you have chronic low blood pressure, hot water, such as in a jacuzzi can cause dilation of your blood vessels causing your blood pressure go even lower. This is a frequent cause of losing consciousness. Anemia, or low red blood cell count, can cause the same thing. If this happens repeatedly, see a doctor.
