For some reason, the CBX just doesn't do it for me.

Open up your eyes, just to check that you're asleep, again

 

Well, it could be the beginning of Meniere's syndrome.

 

Is the dizziness "oh, I'm a bit pissed" or "where's the fucking floor!!"

If it's the latter, keep an eye on it

€2.50 at the beer tent!

About €18 for a crate of 24 at the supermarket, up the road.

I can only recall seeing our crates, in the field......

That is, most definitely, the spirit. Really, I haven't got a fucking
clue what I'm talking about, but I can almost picture some anonymous
pompous doctor explaining it away - you'd just eaten, so oxygen supply
going to the digestive system[*], standing up suddenly & a bit of
physical activity (washing hands), first things to go screwy brain-wise
when oxygen is in short supply (as a pilot you obviously know this)
being visual and audio processing...

A lesser man would have simply passed-out.

Cool. Please make a video.

[*] I didn't know, until my old man had a heart attack, that puking
one's guts up is part of the whole lovely cardiac-arrest experience.
Apparently, digesting food takes up so much blood-oxygen that the first
thing the body does during a big heart attack is free itself of any
undigested food. Clever, really, in a gross sort of way...

 

If your dick and right hand haven't fallen off, then you have the
mechanical bits

 

Good point.

What, again?

 

bungee yourself to the seat, and a BFO gyroscope to the pillion pad.

 

Sounds like you got up too quickly after being relaxed for too long.
This happened to me 10 years ago after I suddenly go up out of bed for a
piss. I was fine, but after 30 seconds/minute I had exactly what you
described. I fell unconscious in the bath for a few seconds then
everything was spinning for several minutes, I couldnt even crawl back
to the bedroom.

It is scary when it happens but its nothing to worry about AFAIK.

 

Can't be arsed reading the rest of the thread. Has anyone said
'labyrinthitis' yet? Could be that if you've got / had a bad cold recently.

 

The answer, as always, is in your own hands.

 

Yours sounds more like micturition hypotension; it's not entirely
uncommon.

 

I'll have the camping kit bungied to the seat. If I have an episode, I'll
lean backwards and cling to the luggage, and let the gyroscopic effect of
the wheels countersteer me to safety.
