Answer 1

Could be hypertension. You need to seek medical advice from your physician.

Are you a doctor g13sm?  No, and yes hypertension can be the cause of her problems.  Hypertension causes headaches and dizziness, among other problems that are abnormal.  I am a RN and my husband is a Cardiologist... so I think I understand a little bit.  It could also be anemia.  Ophelia simply needs to have blood work done and make sure whatever issues she is experiencing is properly diagnosed.

Answer 2

well if it is when you move to fast from a still position you could be suffring from a type motion sickness...

Answer 3

It isn't hypertension it's hypotension but you should seek medical attention.

Answer 4

Orthostatic hypotension (what your describing), is a decline in blood pressure to the brain, which occurs when you stand from a suppine position.  However, if you experience this regularly there may be other contributing factors to this condition.  If this has been ongoing you may want to consider visiting a doctor.
