I have noticed that after I take my phen....and I stand up too fast, I get light headed, kinda feels like oxygen has been cut off to my head for a second,and like I'm gonna pass out. then I feel fine. If I get up really slow it does'nt happen..anyone else have this problem??

Are you eating? You may be anemic. I'd get checked. All a doc has to do is ***** your finger to test your iron levels. If you can't get to the doc try eating more lean red meat, green leafy vegetable and such.
I'm anemic, have been my whole life cause my body doesn't absorb iron properly. I live on a high dose iron pill that could be toxic to a normal person.
What you described is one of my symptoms. Iron builds red blood cells which carry oxygen through your body to your organs and brain. Women are especially vulnerable due to monthly blood loss. Don't take an iron pill without a docs prescription though. Its easy to overdose on it. Just try to get more from foods and see what happens.
