Low blood pressure can cause that. Too low BP can cause strokes, just like very high BP can. Do you have a cuff, and do you know what your blood pressure is?

Thank you for your reply.
I have always had fairly low/normal BP always thought that was a good thing.
I’m 51
Last night at work same thing, feeling like i’m on a boat at sea.
same right now sort of.

This is my prob, for a while i was unemployed, here in MA it is illegal not to have insurance so i was put on free Medicaid, MassHealth it’s called here.
I officially now work “part-time” even though it’s 32-48 hrs/week so no benefits.
Masshealth caught wind a few months ago of my employment and now i have zero insurance....of all times...
Do i go to my doctor for a consultation for maybe a $100-150 for the visit then get totally reamed with blood tests, MRI etc and put myself in a debt hole for the rest of my life or try to wait it out hope it goes away?
It’s been about 14 days now.

My co-worker says my health is far more important than crushing debt.
anyways will i even be able to get treatment without insurance?

PS Pelham
I am far from rich, got about 11 grand in the bank and that is IT.
My whole life....11 grand.

That would be eaten up instantly with a few tests etc.
ugh...
