I just took a very hot bath and when I got out I threw up. I now feel VERY dizzy and lightheaded and my vision is very blurry I have never had it this bad before. My face is still really hot 15 min later. And I was feeling fine before i took it. I can't walk in a straight line and it kinda feels like I am drunk, but I'm not. Why does this happen and what should I do?

  1. youve become too hot and dehydrated!! drink cold water fast!!!!


  2. Well start by cooling down, you may have experienced heat prostration or even heat stroke, which occurs when your body temp rises too high and can't dissipate the heat. Lie down with a cool wet towel on you and a fan blowing over the towel and let your body lose some of the heat.

    After about 10 minutes, if you don't feel any better, you ought to have someone get you to an ER. The chances are small but the overheating may have caused a stroke.

    good luck,

  3. This happened to me a few week ago except i wasn't sick.

    what i did is i sat outside or somewhere where it was cool and drank some cold water.

    After 10 minutes or so i was fine x

  4. You may be suffering the effects of heat exhaustion brought on by an extended immersion in very hot water. Use a cold compress about the face and neck as first aid.
