Over the past few months, when standing from a crouched position I feel a bit light headed and dizzy. I've always been like that from time to time, but now it's predictable. Ever since I was a teenager, nurses have told me that I have "excellent" blood pressure. I suspect that it may be a bit on the low side and that it may have something to do with this. My late mom and sister have/had thyroid issues, but every time I have mine checked I'm told I am normal.
I've noticed some memory lapses as well, despite feeling a bit of a sharper mind. I had been taking lion's mane mushroom powder that gave me a bit of a mental boost, but I ran out of that a week ago. I am wondering if I should get checked out, but I hate the idea of going to any clinic with the way people are so stupid these days. Any healthfags out there who may have input on this? I just saw that L-Arginine can lower blood pressure, and I take that for health benefits like energy and such. I take Ashwagandha to help with sleep and such. Those are the only two supplements I take that might cause this situation. I know Hawthorne Berry lowers blood pressure, but I am not taking that.
It could be a sign of anemia, as the light-headedness could be a sign of that too.
