Bee, I am glad that you are calling your doc too. This seems more concerning than lightheadedness. Please let us know what you find out. Is it possible you have a bug. Didn't you say your dh was ill a few days ago? Or am I confused? I have also wondered about the amount of intense physical activity you get each day. It seems like a lot to me. I am not meaning to be critical at all. I just am often amazed at the time you spend and wonder about it.

I'm planning on hitting the sack early tonight and no matter how I feel tomorrow, I won't be running in the am.
I'm optimistic though that I'll be fine in the morning.
Thanks for the concern!

I got very dizzy at the gym this afternoon and almost blacked out. Not exactly sure why as I didn't do more than usual and ate on time. This episode necessitated a second snack:
