It could possibly be from dehydration. Sometimes, when you're not drinking enough water, and go from laying to standing, sitting to standing, etc. Your body can get very dizzy. You can also get very hot, light-headed, and your heart can race. I know from expericance that this isn't fun, but I think by drinking more water, or keeping more hydrated, you'll definatley start feeling better getting out of the tub! Also, if you're taking a hot bath, you could just be dizzy from the heat. As I said, staying hydrated should totally help you! Maybe not right away but over time, you'll see improvements. Also, please don't forget to get up slowly when you are dizzy. Getting up too fast can lead to faiting! Hope this helps!

There is a physical reason for this if it only occurs after hot baths or hot tub experiences or even a prolonged hot shower has done it for me once. I will paste a helpful link based on hottubs but for some people a hot bath will have the same effect.

It all has to do with your blood pressure. I am now on blood pressure meds and no longer have the problem as long as I remember to drink plenty of fluids before going into the shower, bath, hottub because when more dehydrated, you can still get the same effects even if on BP meds due to less water in your body and body running thicker, the flow not as easy and the heat will affect it.
If you haven't already, I would advise seeing your Dr. to have BP checked as soon as possible cus you may not have any other signs that something is up and this is a good one.
Otherwise, shorten your time in, make not quite as hot and drink plenty fluids an hour or so before taking that bath.
Good luck.

Carbon monoxide sickness feel like you have the flu. If this is how you feel after spending an extended period in the bath or bathroom get out of the house now. Carbon monoxide gas is heavier than air and will float to the lower levels of the house. Get out now and call the fire department. They have the equipment to check for high CO levels as well as to have a paramedic check you out and see if there is a need to take you to hospital.
If the problem is not high CO levels then the problem may be that your bath water is to hot. Spending extended periods in hot water, a hot tub, can bring on nausea and feeling faint. It would be best to check in with your doctor and let the doctor decide if this is the problem or if something else is going on.

Don't know if you've got any sort of gas heating (inclding central-heating) device in the bathroom, or in a room/landing adjacent to it? If so DEFINITELY get it checked for carbon monoxide leakage. Right away!! Gas fitters/engineers have electronic 'sniffers' which they bring along and check for the gas. And you can buy your own carbon monoxide detectors to fit in your house, which sound an alarm if they pick it up. Dizziness and nausea are classic symptoms of breathing this stuff in. If you stay too long in a carbon monoxide rich environment you fall asleep, lose conciousness and unless somenbody finds you...die. It's that much of a killer. It doesn't smell, and you can't see the vapour (you can smoke from an open fireplace if it drifts back down a blocke chimney and so on, but you can't see this lethal gas). If it checks out OK, then start looking for a medical reason. But check this out first, please.
