    I don't think she is putting us on at all. She said gets dizzy about an hour after eating, being that she commented a little after the typical lunch time window she could have easily just had lunch, then became dizzy shortly after the comment apologizing for a misunderstanding, so forth and so on with the chain of events in the time frame we see here. I hope she receives a diagnosis for this problem so that she doesn't have to worry about falling out every time she eats.

    Clearly you are more jaded about things than I am. I find a 19 year old posting an update from ER normal enough. If it was a 30, 40, 50 year old, I would find it really weird.

    I don't know quite how to explain it. Whenever I eat anything that's not Really really light, about 20-30 mins after eating I feel really dizzy and can't walk proper.

    Then you need to get to a doctor sooner than March -- and stop asking for medical diagnoses on forums like this one. You're playing with fire.

    Hi folks, a friendly reminder to please ensure posts comply with our community guidelines. The guideline in question reads:

    1. No Attacks or Insults and No Reciprocation

    a) Do not attack, mock, or otherwise insult others. You can respectfully disagree with the message or topic, but you cannot attack the messenger. This includes attacks against the user’s spelling or command of written English, or belittling a user for posting a duplicate topic.

    b) If you are attacked by another user, and you reciprocate, you will also be subject to the same consequences. Defending yourself or a friend is not an excuse! Do not take matters into your own hands – instead, use the Report Post link to report an attack and we will be happy to handle the situation for you.

    Thanks,
    Sugar

    Her trouble is that eating makes her dizzy if she eats very much. Not sure if you read trough the thread but she did take the bus to the ER then fainted on the bus, an ambulance then took her to the ER. So hopefully she will know what is behind it and how to handle it soon.

    I know 30+ year olds who have posted selfies from the ER (a couple guys I work with have done it) so posting to a forum where you were just discussing your symptoms for someone younger makes sense to me, I wouldn't do it but in this day and age it is not unusual at all.

    I'm happy you have answers OP. And I'm very grateful that you just have some stitches and not something worse. Get better and keep us updated on your progress with the medication

    So glad you made it to Emerg - even if it was by ambulance. Your injuries could easily have been so much worse.

    Keep us posted! :)

    SO glad you found out the problem! A lady posted further up the thread about this very issue with which you have been diagnosed. I was thinking something like that had to be the problem. Try experimenting with much smaller meals more frequently, maybe add more fat to get in more calories. I hope you can find a way to work around this problem.

    The comments that were removed were the product of a troll who came slithering through. Mods took care of it though.
