The dizziness/lightheadedness and random flushing happens to me after menses because of iron deficiency after my cycle (although I'm always iron deficient). I feel fine when sitting or laying down but as soon as I get moving...it hits me! So if it was somehow part of your cycle...it would fit!
I'm sorry your feeling so icky today! I hope you feel better!
And I really hope your mom comes to terms with who you are :-/ That must be so hard.

Oh, I know I am. I'm already taking 65mg iron twice a day in the morning and around noon every day. I suppose it's possible it's gotten even worse... but to be so bad that even 130mg a day isn't keeping it controlled? There's something more to it if it's iron. Which COULD be related... But I really can't know what's going on for sure at this point until I can see a doctor... This has gone well beyond anything I can self-treat.
