Specializes in Cardiac Electrophysiology

When you walk you: pump the blood that is pooling in your legs back up into your chest. When you stop the blood pools and you have a decrease in cardiac output to the head. This makes you dizzy. You can fix this with support stockings, better hydration and increased salt in your diet.
