I get that way too. I’ve noticed that it happens more when I’ve been doing something strenuous earlier or the day before like cleaning the whole house. It’s an awful feeling. I’ve started taking little breaks by sitting down or lying down between tasks that require me to be on my feet for a long period. My doctor also told me that I should be on a good schedule of when I have my meals, sleep ( get plenty of sleep, no staying up too late) and take my medication on time (which I’m bad at). She said consistency is key. I take walks at least 2-3 times a day (short distances) and that helps me too. Even if I don’t feel great I force myself to and I actually feel better afterwards. I hope this helps you and hang in there. Just know that you’re not alone. ❤️

This is not abnormal at all. Here’s an article that explains it well:

Thanks for the response. I guess I need more Vitamin D.
