Dizzy Lightheaded-what do I do
It could be blood pressure, dehydration, or simply lack of calories (specifically carbs). If you are dizzy just sitting, you should probably call the doctor (and go home, if you are able to drive). Otherwise, you can try drinking to see if that helps in case it is from dehydration.

You don't drown by falling in the water. You drown by staying there.
You may need more salt to help with your BP - and dehydration. Salt cause water retention. I have to remember to add salt to my proteins shakes.
We eat so little and some of the foods are very low sodium. Unless you have high BP - adding salt may help you with dizziness.
