Almost Down...

Me, this morning! 

I slept well and even though I was awake just after 7am, I managed another hour or so before I decided to get up. Having felt absolutely fine and pondering what I fancied for breakfast, I rolled over and straight up out of bed. I started to feel a bit dizzy, and held on to the window sill as I looked out. Then I began to feel really sick, so went to the bathroom. 

I felt so sick I thought I really might be, and then began to feel really hot, and simultaneously broke out into a cold sweat. I managed to lie down on the floor as I felt a bit like I could pass out, yet without feeling fuzzy headed or anything going black etc. It was so strange! I felt terrible, summoned for help (!) and just lay there a few minutes until it passed. I lay then with my feet up for a minute, and then sat up. I felt queasy still, and was a ghastly shade of pale when I looked in the mirror.

I honestly have never experienced anything like it! It was so weird, because I'd felt absolutely fine and then with about half a second of getting up, I was feeling so terrible. Google seems to suggest that I simply got up too fast and that my blood pressure bottomed out, but I've felt a little fragile all day. 

We had yet more blessed sun today, and I went to two different appointments and ticked off another boring job of hoovering out my car! I did do a little bit of work but I've started to doubt myself so I'll give it another crack tomorrow when I'm feeling fresher. 

This photo I took as I don't have a small mirror and wanted to see what my bun looked like!
