Hello fellow reddit users. So, I sometimes face sudden darkness on my vision for a few second randomly after I took an small action like standing up and walking a bit . It feels like darkness surrounding the vision from corner and start to swallow the whole vision(but for like 2 sec) . I dont know why it happens. Have you guys have faced similar thing and what might be the cauze of this?

mby u are standing up too fast
Only when standing? If it happens for lengthy periods of time, look up silent migraines. But if it’s only when standing, look up specifically dizziness/blurred vision when standing.
Yup, sounds like blood rushing too your head.
I had this problem (still do, though very rarely).
I’ve gone to an optometrist when I was a kid and found that I had vitamin deficiency (and a general weakness, as I didn’t have good eating habits when I was a kid). This got better after I fixed my eating habits.
I would suggest tracking what you eat and keeping it close to what is recommended (all the macros nutrients mainly, there are many apps that do that for free), and some physical activity to keep your body active.
If it doesn’t get better or gets worse, go see a doctor.
Definitely get a check up, could be blood pressure dropping. They should check your BP laying down, sitting up, then standing in 2-3 minute intervals.
Please take this seriously and I hope you feel better soon
I guess there are better subreddits to ask this question
It’s normal. Don’t stand up too fast from a laying down position.
Don’t forget to breathe
