Never had that issue...but I did have my face feel like it was being pulled back away from the front of my head... Damn I miss my CC306.


Others have hit on it... hypotension... I see it frequently on the ambulance... some people mistake it for angina and give us a call thinking the worst. I have a co-worker that wears a monitor to track his heart because of this very thing. Never hurts to look into it but I wouldn't work yourself up to much over it yet.

That is vertigo, it can actually affect people when they are just standing. I think it can be an inner ear thing. I girl I used to work with had this
I do get it a little while standing in one place, it feels like I'm standing on top of a swaying flagpole and I have to take a wide stance to keep from falling over. Kinda weird considering I'm only 5'6".[&:]

ORIGINAL: FuzzyDiceRule

exhaust leak?
I do have a cutout that dumps underneath the car.
And yeah, I was hungry and thirsty. I usually skip dinner when I go there straight from work. I'll start eating before I go. Probably nothing to worry about. Thanks guys.

Did you get a hard-on at the same time? I sometimes experience this right before I get ready to stick it in my wife's poopar.

The flourescent lights in our kitchen are flickering and it doesn't bother me at all. My g/f, however, says that if I don't fix it she's going to have a seizure. Whatever, more spaghetti and garlic bread for me.

Your organs of balance are the semi-circular canals located next to the cochlea (hearing) in the inner ear. There are three of them and one is for acceleration....pretty cool eh It could be a problem with one of these, but, at your age it's unlikely. Another issue is breathing. You could be getting excited and breathing too deeply.....too much O2. Others were mentioned...high/low blood sugar, high/low blood pressure. If it is your semi-canals you will be bothered with it at other times also. Good luck and see a Doc if it gets worse. P.S. I'm an audiologist and see this stuff regularly. [8D]
