fainting
The various causes of syncope are central nervous system ischemia, vasovagal syncope may occur during urination, coughing etc, postural, cardiac syncope, neurological syncope, hypoglycemia, deglutition syncope associated with solids swallowing, cardiac includes cardiac arrhythmias, obstructive cardiac lesions, structural cardiopulmonary disease, sick sinus syndrome etc.
I don't know what causes your abdominal pain, but since it seems like a precursor to a faint, has anybody ever checked to make sure your abdominal aorta was in fine condition, with no wall weaknesses? I might be way off base here and way out in left field, but if it were me, I'd be curious to know and wanting to make sure I did not have an abdominal aortic aneurysm or other abnormality there.
Neurological causes of syncope are less common but do occur with carotid artery disease (which a carotid ultrasound can evaluate) and posterior circulation stroke/insufficiency. Other causes of syncope can include low blood sugar, low blood counts, and situational (such as during defecation or urination).
Your father has BPH. Was a medicine recently started for this? Many of the medications to treat BPH can cause syncopal episodes.
It may occur in scary, embarrassing or uneasy situations, or during blood drawing, coughing, laughing, urination or defecation. If it persists, have this checked by your doctor for proper management. Your complete medical history and physical examination are needed to determine the underlying cause. Take care and do keep us posted.
I have copied this out for you, it happens quite frequently While there are uncommon serious causes of passing out in children, the majority of fainting episodes are brought about by reasons that are neither serious nor life-threatening. The most common reason for fainting in children is called vasovagal syncope [VAY-so-VAY-gull SEENK-oh-pee).
Vasovagal syncope is an abnormal reaction of the nerves to otherwise normal circumstances. These nerves dictate the heart rate and blood pressure.
Vasovagal syncope is a common type of fainting triggered by psychological or physical stress, such as seeing blood, straining during a bowel movement, or intense sexual activity (deep penetration hitting the cervix, which has lots of nerve endings), which causes your heart rate and blood pressure to briefly drop (you can confirm this with an automatic blood pressure cuff available online or at your local pharmacy).
Hi,
Sinus arrhythmia is a normal phenomenon in every child.
I hope your doctor knows what he's doing. There are two possibilities. Fainting after standing for a long time or during rest, is usually caused by vagal hyperactivity that causes a drop in the blood pressure, usually with a slow heart rate. This is more or less normal.
It may be what I have which is called Carcinogenic Syncope. A simple tilt table test will tell you if this is your problem. When it started happening to me I could always feel it coming on but had no control and no idea what was going on. 1st symptom I would get was like zigzags in my eyes, which would turn to whiteout to tunnel vision, severe nausea, sweating, feel like I was going to lose control of my bowels and this happened twice when I was driving.
t think doctors know IST well, why and what it causes.
1). So what is it? Or what could it be? On the off-chance that trying to urinate again would be a bad thing, I'm not going to the restroom again until I have an idea of what this is.
Medical information:
Currently taking Adderall XR and a once-a-day vitamin. No prior surgeries. No STD's. No history of problems with urination. Diagnosed with Neurocardiogenic Syncope a year ago, self-diagnosed with hypermobility nine years ago.
Treatment includes application of a steroid cream to the foreskin up to three times a day for about a month to loosen the adhesive ring.If ballooning during micturition is present, then surgical removal of all or part of the foreskin(circumcision) may be recommended. Please get yourself thoroughly examined by a surgeon.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided.
It could be postprandial hypotension, a drop in blood pressure that occurs after eating which can result in presyncope (dizziness, lightheadedness, weakness, almost fainting) or syncope (fainting) in some patients. A holter monitor does not measure blood pressure, so it would not rule out postprandial hypotension as a cause for syncope.
I don't have specific experience though I once was advised to get an implantable recorder but declined. The reason I declined was because I worked the problem backwards and decided there wasn't any viable treatment anyway so why bother?.... I wrote down the problem, then wrote down what all the possible causes might be. Say for fainting, I'm not an expert but I know a few things, your fainting would be called "Syncope" correct?
A head-up tilt test can uncover the underlying cause of the fainting in this syndrome. Neurocardiogenic syncope is usually treated with medications that reduce the probability of cardiac nerves triggering the cycle that leads to lightheadedness, dizziness or fainting. This syndrome is most often treated with a combination of increased salt and water intake along with medications that regulate blood pressure.
Such spells need a workup to rule out some potential causes
- Vasovagal syncope – Syncope means a transient, self-limited loss of consciousness with an inability to maintain postural tone that is followed by spontaneous recovery. In vasovagal syncope, triggers include prolonged standing, sight of blood, pain, and fear. Before losing consciousness, one can develop nausea, sweating and pale skin. Typically return to consciousness occurs after 1 to 2 minutes.
I have syncope also. I have all the slow, fast, skipping, flutters etc. they did all the tests and my heart is strong but i failed my tilt test. There are several types of syncope. I have vaso vagal. My cousin has the more rare POTS. that causes syncope also. She said she failed her tilt several times but wasn't diagnosed with POTS until they did an EEG, laying, sitting, then standing. Ask questions when at the DR for sure. There's not too much info on POTS and a lot of Dr.
Check out the documentary "Under Our Skin" which is about chronic Lyme disease. That's an eye opener! I have four autoimmune diseases and have a negative ANA btw. Hmmm :)
I did find a study entitled - Syncope and Raynaud's disease. Syncope is the medical term for fainting. This does make sense that fainting could be a symptom of Raynaud's due to ischaemia (restriction in blood supply to tissues) in the brain.
