afraid of fainting!

Does anyone else feel really faint? Ive been extremly dizzy due to my morning sickness . I puke at least 4 or 5 times a day. Im ten weeks pregnant and havent been to the doctor. I see little floaty things in my eyes sometimes. And it looks like lighting streaks when I close them. I can feel my heart race alot and im starting to get bloody noses. Does anyone no what this can be or have similar symptoms?

I had this happen once, to the point where I honestly thought I was going to faint.. it was last week (34 weeks) and I was getting a hair cut, it was my sugar dropping really low. It didn't go away til after I drank water, feels terrible!! I would mention it to your doctor, especially with your consistent morning sickness

sounds like dehydration and lack of nutrients. try some sports drinks. try sucking on peppermints or peppermint tea to help ease your tummy. i found they worked for 20 minutes for me, but then at least after a few days i was able to eat normally again.
hope you are feeling better soon and the doctor is able to help.

Have you tried to apply for medicaid? A lot of women qualify simply because  of the fact that they are pregnant, but it will get cut off 6wks after you have your baby. Never hurts to try.

definitely try and see someone, could also be low/high blood pressure, your blood sugars etc.. there's so many things it could be that need testing/ruling out! Hope you feel better soon. I'm not sure as i'm from UK, luckily we get free healthcare (sadly this isn't always the best because the level of care isn't great at all in some places) try asking on this forum about that ? maybe someone who lives near you can help out advising you x

Visiual disturbances sound like you should get checked, and fainting etc/ dizziness you should have blood tests, you could be anemic. the other things I have no idea about but you really need to see a doc. in the mean time try to rest and stay hydrated with water. Good luck! xx
