What Causes Sudden Weakness And Lightheaded?

Two days ago I was sitting in my chiropractic waiting room. Suddenly I felt very weak and I could not move my arms. Both of them felt very heavy. I felt light headed. After my adjustment, I felt weak and light headed. It took all I had to drive myself home. I have not had any symptoms since then.

Hi
Hope this message finds you in good health.
I have gone through your complaints and understand your concern.
I generally see many cases like this at my clinic.
such symptoms are caused by hypoglycemia or gastritis or a generalised weakness.
if it happens again,get a blood investigation done.
You should eventually get back to normal in coming few days.Nothing to worry about.     
I hope your question has been answered.
If you have any follow-up queries,feel free to consult me anytime.
Thanks,Take care,God bless.
