Nausea and dizziness after a hot bath

[Polar Bear]

Phew !!!   Sealed the deal.  😉

It would have the added bonus that you wouldn't need a hot bath to suffer from nausea and dizziness.

Sounds delightful.

I appear to have started something with my gardening remark. 

Rest assured that we can offer a selection of spades and several varieties of toxic Alsacien cooking (also using a spade), though TBH we prefer Thai.

What does Alsace have to offer a vegetarian?

I bathed again yesterday.  The water was purposely not so hot and I didn't linger more than about 15 minutes.  Absolutely no side effects.

It was still a lovely soak though.  👍

AIUI standing hypotension is largely due to leaky non-return valves in the legs.  Not much you can do about it, although apparently clenching your buttocks may help prevent greyouts.

Although these contribute, and cause varicose veins, not all folk with varicose veins have postural hypotension and many folk with postural hypotension don't have varicose veins.
Varios medications, especially those for high blood pressure and an ageing circulation & autonomic nervous system are other factors.
