Attention all people with blood:

bettsplendens:

Do you get tired a lot? 

Tired if you bend over to pick things up?

Tired a lot in the heat?

Tired because of anxiety/depression? 

Get dizzy/pass out easily?

Hot showers make you tired/light-headed? 

I might be able to tell you why! 

You may have a blood pressure thing. 

Get ahold of a blood pressure cuff. You’ll need to measure your BP and pulse. 

The website below has the exact method, but, basically, you lay down for a few minutes and take your BP. Then, you stand up, stay completely still (no fidgeting, no talking, nothing), and periodically take it again. If your pulse goes up more than 30 points when you stand up or your blood pressure drops while you’re standing, take those results to your doctor.

You might have the blood pressure problem listed in the link, you might have someone else.

TL;DR: if you have ANY kind of issues with tiredness, DO THIS.
