Common Questions and Answers about Fainting while getting up
fainting
ve dealt with a lot of dizziness, fatigue, fainting, (or more normally just getting really close to fainting) nausea and vomiting. I told my doctor about this and she thought it could be related to my migraines that I've had for years. My blood pressure has always been normal when the nurse checks it as well as my pulse. But I've become more aware recently how much my position effects my symptoms.
I went in the shower and felt faint, called for my Mum and after a few seconds I did actually faint and lose consciousness. For the next few weeks I was feeling really tired all the time, nauseated and getting bouts of dizziness so I basically spent weeks in bed. Due to being so inactive and hardly eating I ended up in hospital for 5 days with painful impacted constipation.
d get dizzy, could hear what was going on around me while unconcious, wake up and be fine! But NOW, it takes longer to wake up, and I have NO CLUE where I am or how I got there. On Jan 19th, 2012, my 5 year old son broke his arm, not sure what I was thinking, but I put him in the van and started to drive to the hospital. I had almost NO WARNING before I passed out at the wheel on a busy parkway, crashed 4 times, completely unconcious on the steering wheel.
Hey im 15 year old and before a few months i started getting one of the wierdes thing ive ever had. There is no real way i can explain, but if i stand on 1 place for a while, if i sit on a chair or lie or anything, when I stand up I instantly get a weird thing that starts from the bottom of my feet to my hands/eyes and back/neck and it is terrible feeling which I really cant discribe, please help me out here.
I was always really sick with morning sickness and once I passed out while on the stairs and fell down half of them. Woke up at the bottom of the stairs so confused. It's an unfortunate thing but also a bit normal. The amount of blood in your body is increasing and that is usually what causes it. If it happens a lot you should definitely go in and get some blood work done. But if it's just once in a while just try and be safe and bring it up at your next doctors visit.
And so, there is a lot of research ongoing to determine why vasovagal reactions occur and how to diagnose them. You see, while vasovagal syncope is the number one cause of fainting in children, it is sometimes difficult to identify this as the reason because there is currently no definitive test. This means that some children end up getting a lot of other fruitless tests looking for other causes of passing out.

Today I consulted with a Neuro Doctor Puneet Syal (MD- Medicine) He told that my son may have chances 95 % of Fainting or 5% chances of Epilepsy desease and he advised MRI, EEG, ECHO & ECG TESTS.
ve been receiving black outs as well, i asked my doctor and he said it was nothing, and it was just because i was getting up to quickly. However, lately i get them all the time, like you said, ill be walking, and ill get it. I thought it was still nothing so i ignored it, but a few days ago i got a black out and i fell, like for a few seconds but i those few seconds i was feeling really dizzy. I think its the same problem you have.
Released him went to eat, I had to prompt him to eat he was staring into space, extremely tired and sleepy we went home and he slept till the next day. Woke up all was fine like nothing had happened, he didn't remember a thing that happened the previous day.
Today it happened in a long line at the store, I was waiting about 10 minutes in line and I started getting woozy and weak and my vision started to black out. I made it to a chair and fanned myself for a few minutes and it took a while to go away. Is this normal? I've heard of the dizziness being common, but my vision really starts to turn black and I get light headed. Both times I have had plenty of fluids and protien in my system so its not that.
I panicked a bit and pulled the cord to get off at the next stop. Immediately after getting off the bus I ended up throwing up while calling my mother to come get me. I was totally disoriented and had no idea whatsoever where I was. Scared the **** out of me.
You could be getting less oxygen to your brain as a result of sleep apnea. My neuro thinks that was a lot to do with my issue. Have you gone for a sleep study? If not I recommend it.
