Default Thursday I woke up unbalanced.

When I got out of bed I almost fell when I tried to stand up -- caught myself
from hitting the floor by grabbing a chair. Kept kind of wobbling awhile.

I tried to settle myself but I got in the car to drive aware that it was not safe
to drive. I had a mammo appointment nearby. I did not have the right paperwork with me so I came home really really upset.
=-=-=-
Back home, I looked to Google re symptoms. It said the balance issue might be caused from not drinking enough water / lack of electrolytes. Also mentioned low blood pressure.
-- I did not have any sports drinking handy so I drank tons of water and
two cans of soup for the salt and ate raisins and an orange for the sugar that might be in store-bought sports drinks.


After drinking water all day long and taking the salt and sugar described above, I feel o.k. Totally balanced :=)
