Hmm. Fair enough. Does it happen when you've been ssitting down and then stand up? Maybe it's a headrush? Or you might have low blood pressure perhaps. I did for a while and I used to get more/bigger headrushes.

She said that her blood pressure is fine and that she checked this regularly.

You're just a fakey cake maker and I ain't got time for you-uuuuu.

Sorry.

Do you like the sensation? It sounds kind of cool.

BA isn't fake :mad:

Could it be low blood sugar? Sometimes makes me light headed, but then you said you'd eaten your breakfast so if probably isn't that. Maybe mention it to your GP next time you go? :smile:

Long shot, but I get this when people mention/I see/think about having blood taken. I go all clammy and can't feel my arms or legs, then like I'm going to faint or fall over or be sick. Is it like that?

Could it be related to some kind of phobia/panic attack?

Is it sort of like you feel you're not really there? Or you are, but you're like walking through a dream land where you know the things are real but you can't focus on them. Kind of like you're being über-conscious (rather than less conscious, what someone else suggested) and yet not concentrated..?
Cos I get that sometimes, esp. when I walk out the cinema after having just seen a film I got really dragged into. It's more mental than physical.

maybe the lack of iron has resulted in not enough oxygen getting to the brain (Oxygen binds to iron in the haemoglobin, which transports the oxygen around the body) , id go and see a doctor although dont worry about it too much, i think my mate gets this sometimes.

Sorry about the title, its serious though. Earlier on today, I felt like I was a ghost, floating while walking, felt as though I couldnt touch, no sensations, like my feet were off the ground, I was just walking, and I felt this floating sensation, like I couldnt sense my feet were touching the ground or my arms were swinging. It's abit hard to explain, you get what I mean. And no I havent taken and drugs or anything. Whats up with me? This is not the first time I got it, its happened many times before, it wears off after a few minutes.

Love BlueAngel x

R u on drugs?!
