Passed out after a shower?

Okay, this happened to someone i know recently and we cant figure out why.

she gets out of bed, takes a shower, just like in her everyday routine, only today feels dizzy/lightheaded. So she sits down, and then passes out, regains consciousness quickly.

Then it was over, not dizzy anymore, feels normal just tired.

Anyone have an idea on why?

    Many tend to feel a little light-headed in the morning. If she shower in, particularly hot water, the steam could make you feel dizzy and maybe pass out unconscious in cases of low blood pressure or dehydration. I would suggest drinking some water to re-hydrate herself after a long nights sleep.

    If the problem continues, counsel with a doctor.

    Sounds like it could be low potassium or dehydration or something to that effect. This person probably has been doing way to much and not taking care of him/herself properly and the body shutdown. They need to stay hydrated and eat well balanced meals. Even taking a multivitamin in addition would help so this wont happen again. Advise this person to go see a doctor because you don't want it to be something really serious and it goes untreated. The body has a way of telling you when there is something wrong and this could of been worse.
