evadgib Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Hi All, My weight is heading in the right direction and i'm generally fit, but can anyone please explain why in the last 2 weeks I have experienced dizzyness and (particularly while trying to sleep) and alarming jolt which feels like a cattle fence/possible heart attack yet goes away after a few seconds? My suspicions are that Gastro/wind as a result of a change of diet may be to blame rather than something more sinister. My BP was well within limits when tested a few mins ago & I neither drink or smoke & otherwise feel absolutely fine. Has anyone had anything similar to this?

upu2 Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Not being a doctor I cant tell you the cause but would suggest you go and get a check up. Probably nothing to worry about but you wont know until you get checked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontoearth Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Evidently, very normal and no one knows WHY exactly! I had the same things and they all just went away! https://www.livescience.com/39225-why-people-twitch-falling-asleep.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evadgib Posted June 28, 2018 Author Share Posted June 28, 2018 It appears my suspicions were right that this was gastro-related. I drink 3L of bottled water enhanced with citrus, ginger, honey to make it palatable per day & I think the last couple of batches made at home have been a little too strong & not sieved properly to ensure all the zest & ginger were removed prior to bottling. Feel free to have a chuckle at my expence ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faraday Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 I had a slight chuckle Dave, but I well understand Gastro probs. Glad you're ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
