A member asked:
This morning when i woke up and tried to stand up from bed, my legs wouldn't respond and i fell, but right away i stand up and everything was normal. should i worry?

Perhaps you experienced a blood pressure drop if standing too rapidly (orthostatic hypotension). This might respond to more conscientious hydration, but some medications do cause such reactions. Contact your doctor if this occurs again. But before you stand, sit on bed for about 15 seconds to stabilize.
