Shortness Of Breath, Have Dizziness, Tiredness, Blacking Out. Why Did It Happen?
When I get up from the couch I feel really dizzy. My vision gets black and I have stop walking to make it go away. I have almost fallen a few times when I feel dizzy. When I am in the shower I feel dizzy and get out of breath and start to breath heavily. Also when I just walked down the hall I got really tired and got out of breath.

Hi ! Sometimes there is a feeling of dizziness on getting up from the couch suddenly due to decreased circulation of blood resulting in low oxygen saturation of brain. However, before labeling it normal, one has to exclude any cardiovascular or respiratory pathology and so I l would suggest you to get yourself reviewed by a Cardiologist in your area. Good luck.
