Avatar n tn I stood up and was able to make a few steps back to my room, but then I lost my vision - everything went black and I lost my power, so I sat down on the floor. Next thing I remember my boyfriend was shaking me and calling my name, then I woke up. I fainted for a few seconds. After I lied down I felt much better. And later that night I did return to the bathroom successfully three times. What is the cause of my fainting and is it dangerous, should I be worried?
Avatar n tn Last night I was standin in the kitchen having a cup of tea and chatting to a friend when all of a sudden I felt really tired and incredibly nauseas, my ears started ringing like i was going deaf. The room got narrow and darker and i felt like i was getting really dizziness accompanied by a sharp stabbing headache...all i could get out was 'Im really feeling sick' and i needed to lay down immediately because i felt like i was either going to puke or pass out.
7205189 tn?1447794738 ve only actually fainted a few times, but I definitely have all of the symptoms of POTS and have come close to fainting so many times if I am on my feet too long or in various other circumstances. I currently take Propranolol which has helped with my heart troubles (used to have a lot of arrhythmias and my heart would race randomly) so I am wondering if it is even worth the test. I've had cardiologists (one who looked up POTS on wikipedia while I was sitting in the room...
Avatar f tn Please have someone drive you the emergency room now! What's happening to you is extremely serious. I had a cousin with a leaky heart valve & a tooth infection. The infection went to his heart and he had a massive stroke. Please don't drive yourself & if no one is there to take you right now to the emergency room, call 9-1-1!

Avatar f tn I had fainting spells in the shower every time with my first two. I was anemic too. the doctor had me taking iron supplements twice a day and that stopped it.
Avatar n tn Loss of conscious in any emergency room I have every worked in mandates an overnight stay for observation. This is not the case in certain emergency rooms in Somalia and Afghanistan, and a little Island off the coast of Iceland notorious for practicing polygamy, but everywhere else, that is the drill. Clearly a neurological event took place, which seems to have been consistent with a petit mal seizure, etiology unknown.
Avatar n tn Eating dinner may stimulate the Vagal Nerve (see Vagus Nerve on Wikipedia) which may also account for variations in heart rate. Lastly, I would imagine that subtle rhythm disturbances could disturb an electronic read-out.
Avatar f tn The likelihood is this is not that serious, however any episode involving a loss of consciousness mandates an immediate trip to the emergency room and an in-person evaluation by an M.D. preferably a neurologist. Do not pass go. Do not collect two hundred dollars. It is absolutely positively impossible to guess the etiology. Most likely this was a simple vasovagal episode, perhaps with an element of dehydration or anemia, but we can't be sure. An MRI/MRA would be prudent. Perhaps an EEG.
Avatar n tn i had to reschedule a steroetactic biopsy because as soon as they got me in the room and i saw all the equipment and they were telling me what they were going to do i almost fainted!!!! i opted for the wait 6 months and check for changes. look at it this way, you brought some excitement to what would otherwise been a boring routine day for the staff!!!!!
Avatar f tn Sometimes when I am in room with white or plain colored walls or in darkness, I see fuzzy vision or tiny dots on those surfaces. Very annoying, what are they ?
403255 tn?1278813266 m bigger - it did not feel uncomfortable but I will loosen it after lunch tomorrow 3. Sitting down too much - Have been teaching off of my *** but walk regularly to loo and prep room a few doors down 4. Vasovagal Syncope - caused by straining to pee, poo cough - not doing any of those in my lesson LOL but thought maybe the babies were near my vagal nerve???
Avatar f tn When I got out I was stumbling to my room to lie down. After I did I felt better. I just found out I failed the glucose test and have to take the three hour one Friday. Don't know if that's what had to do with it or the fact I'm anemic and have low iron as well..
Avatar f tn I take Rebif injections 3 times a week and my question is this does being dizzy and having fainting spells a part of the MS symptoms. In March this year I fainted after getting out of bed in the middle of the night and hit my head and had to go to the emergency room for stitches. They ran blood tests and said that all was in normal range.
Avatar m tn This is a post from my two others. I've gotten help out of those two but I was hoping if I got some more answers. So recently my friend has fainted, which was a very scary thing. It happened once in October but had no signs since therefore she did not go to the doctor because she thought there was no sense into doing so. But after this faint she has been worrying. Her cycle came a few days later after the fall, does this have to do with anything?
1221453 tn?1281092342 I was standing with her holding her and her bag and pg (yes no one had the kindness to offer a seat) After two stops, I started breaking out in cold sweat and I started seeing black spots/static current and I think it was more from feeling cramped and with barely enough room to breathe. Also it was terrible when the train got stuck before I got to my stop- due to some problems and I felt even more stifled.
Avatar f tn Another good thing to check out is potential pregnancy. That can sometimes cause fainting/near-fainting spells. I'm not saying this is your issue. Just saying it's something simple that has the potential to cause the symptoms.
Avatar n tn So, I'm 16 years old and I faint. I usually get dizzy, my vission goes blurry then dark and I studder my words when the "attack" is happening, then I fall to the floor.. This happened once over the summer and it felt as if my head kept banging against the floor. I could see out of the top of my eyes as if i was looking up. Weird thing is, I felt as if i was thinking but I couldn't move or talk or move my eyes.. The "attack" lasted about a minute and I could get up.
Avatar f tn I dont know why but for the last 3 years i have been fainting or blacking out for no reason. When it first started, i just thought that it was just because i was getting out of bed way too fast ( i used to fall in my room a lot! and in the hall way. one time i fell into my closet and couldn't get up for some reason.) But then it got all weird because it would happen out of the blue. i would be feeling fine and walking and then i would just pass out right there.
Avatar n tn My daughter has suffered from fainting and seizures within the last year, now her pupils will dialate unevenly or become unresponsive when moving from a well lit room to a dimly lit room. Her pupils will be very large in bright lights and one will be different from the other. She comes up clear on a recent CTA of the brain. We are pending a MRI 6/4, but I thought I'd ask. She also complains that when she moves her eyes up, down, side to side it causes pain.

126762 tn?1325261805 my sister, age 22, and 13 weeks pregnant, this morning was at work, while standing she felt faint, then walked out of the room, everything went black (she described it as thinking she went blind), then leaned against a wall... and fainted and woke up on the floor, she was sweating and shaking right before that. When she woke up, she went to the bathroom and threw up, and was shaky afterwards... this afternoon she had what she says was very little spotting (5 or 6 hours later).
