Common Questions and Answers about Fainting and vomiting

fainting

Avatar m tn Yes, my mom has been vomiting everyday for about a month and a half and has fainted during the middle of the day, in the shower, while walking, and in the middle of the night. She just did it again a few minutes ago, so I gave her some ginger ale a water and aspirin and she is now resting (under my close watch). Please anyone out there if you can help please respond. I can't only have one parent.
Avatar m tn Thanks for your theory i have been to 2 different gastroentologists and had a endoscopy (which discovered i still had food there after a day of fasting) and i have had a gastric emptying test but it found nothing :( all the doctors i have been to just say they don't know ive had a fainting disorder (for lack of better words) since i was 4 and over the years more and more symptoms keep popping up, the vomiting etc.
Avatar f tn Sounds like Vasovagal Syncope. Secondly, have you been to a physician after this last episode? Any medications ever prescribed for this?
Avatar f tn 2nd day of vomiting and fainting. Tried to call ob and he's not working til tomorrow. Tried to call on-call ob and no answer. Called the hospital and they told me I probably have a virus and they don't want me infecting the other pregnant women! Too bad my bp keeps spiking and I've already been diagnosed with preeclamplsia. What am I supposed to do now?
Avatar n tn I did accept my third drink from a guy who left and gave it me on his way out but my fainting and vomiting dont seem to be normal symptoms of drink spiking. Also I passed out only 10 minutes or so after drinking only half of that drink. Should I be worried or see my doctor at this stage or do people just faint sometimes?????
Avatar n tn Regarding her episodes of vomiting and abdominal pain, these are also common in patients with psychogenic disorders, however I think it is important and a priority to make sure there is no underlying condition producing these symptoms, before being able to blame them on psychiatric problems. There are metabolic syndromes in children presenting with nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain.
Avatar n tn Nause, room spinning feelings, vomiting and fainting. I had severe fainting feeling that lasted seconds intermittently over a few months. Now mainly over that. Saw an ENT(ears, nose and throat specialist). Easy cure for me. Also had the same symptoms as yourself after banging my head(unexpectedly). So I too know how your symptoms can be severe. Mine was a positional dizziness. So this situation was one cause. There are others that the specialist should be able to diagnose. Hope this helps.

Avatar f tn I was 27 or so, and it started with a urinary tract ifection that I ignored because I could not miss work. It took a week in the hospital, and more fainting and a second trip to the hospital before I was diagnosed. I had fainted so much, vomiting, tired, etc... By the time it was diagnosed correctly, I was very sick. After the second week in the hospital, my veins were no good and I almost did not recover. Because of that, I was told that I am more likely to have recurring bouts of it.
Avatar f tn My daughters symptoms are mainly low blood pressure, low heart rate, low blood sugar, headaches, dizziness, fainting, weakness, and occasional seizures. There are too many symptoms to list really though. Her treatment right now is Florinef, Ritalin, Midodrine, and saline hydration therapy through her PICC. I just take Florinef.
Avatar f tn IF the pain has resolved, I would think that it would be OK for you to wait and see if it comes back or if you develop other symptoms such as fever, vomiting, diarrhea, etc. If the pain persists or if these other symptoms arise then it really needs to be evaluated as it could be something serious such as appendicitis, ovarian cyst, etc. Hope this helps. Good luck.
Avatar f tn Her symptoms are chest pain, dizziness, occassional fainting spells, headache, abdominal pain, and of course constant vomiting. Doctors have no idea what is wrong with my daughter, and have discharged her although her symptoms are still as bad as ever. It is only 1 p.m. here, and she has already vomited 23 times. She has had no change in lifestyle , or any recent trauma, under no stress...we truly believe that whatever this is is a physical medical problem, and not psychological.
Avatar f tn Several of the types of fainting you describe—nearly passing out from pain, almost passing out from vomiting, and fainting from shock—are forms of vasovagal syncope that are generally considered to be episodic and not representative of an underlying pathology per se.
Avatar f tn I was sick and vomiting all night. I got up this morning to go to work and could barely walk from the dizziness. I don't know what is going on, but I don't like it. My question is how do some of you know when it is time to go the hospital? I have wondered this for a while. I haven't gone for any of my problems except pain. Last week I got to hurting so bad that I had to go get something for the pain. Hope everyone else is doing better.
Avatar f tn The low pulse rate can definately be a reason for having dizzy and fainting spells. I don't want to alarm you however, I recently went through a long 2 months of thinking i had a heart problem when it was just anxiety. I had a really fast heart rate due to anxiety. How low is your pulse? Mine gets as low as 53 BPM without feeling dizzy or weird, which is common in young, active, healthy people.
Avatar f tn Me too but with nausea, night swears, fever 38.5, vomiting, diarrhea, fainting, sore lymph nodes, sore muscles, list 2.
Avatar f tn The symptoms are endless and vary person to person day to day. Very few doctors are familiar with this illness and often misdiagnose patients. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

5338324 tn?1366618498 v been having this for one year then I dicied to tell my parents. My head started to hurt at night and I felt like vomiting. anyone know whats happening?
Avatar n tn Drinking water seemed to help rid me of the seemingly pattern of fainting and regaining consciousness and it happened on two nonconsecutive days both the same situation, the element of heat outside being a possible factor, and the lack of any overpowering physical activity.

1504138 tn?1289518617 Whenever I have an episode I have shortness of breath, rapid heart rate, sweaty palms and feet, ringing in the ears, blurred and/or loss of vision, shaking all over, my arms and legs draw up, loss of voluntary movement, loss of speech, and sometimes vomiting. I've never had an episode while in a doctor's care, so they cannot know for sure what it is. They think it is some kind of seizure.
1600646 tn?1297895872 It could be as simple as a pulled muscle which can be very painful especially in the intercostal regions of the ribs, but it could be anything from pulled muscle, spleen, Kidney issues (kidney stones, kidney infection, kidney calcification or even kidney failure being absolute worst case scenario) so dont be alarmed at thes but you should look for signs and symptoms like, low grade to high fever 99-101+, how many days has this been going on, does it hurt more if you press down or let go, Does it
