Diagnosis

Get up slower. 

That was the suggestion for treatment that I got from the doctor, when I told her I frequently get dizzy to the point where I loose vision.

She also told me to make sure I'm drinking enough and to cut down on my caffeine intake. Something about my blood vessels not working properly and keeping myself fully hydrated. So that's going to be fun. I've already brought decaf tea, but not having coke when I go out will be hard. Sigh.

I'm to go back if it doesn't get better. I don't think I'll bother. I only really went to shut up the people that kept on at me about it, but to be honest, maybe I'm just getting used to it. Sure it sucks, but maybe it's just how things are.

I thought she'd at least suggest a blood test to make sure it's not anything to do with anemia being a vegetarian and all. I guess I didn't seem  to be showing other symptoms. I like her, so I'm going to trust her instincts and see what happens.
