Common Questions and Answers about Fainting while going to the bathroom
fainting
The first time I fainted in the bathroom while trying to poo was a year ago. I woke up having cramps so I decided to use the bathroom. I then sat there patiently and started doing my business. I began to feel dizzy and faint, lightheaded maybe. My feet felt weak, as if they were unable to stand up it was as if they were going numb or having that buzz sensation. I can't remember if I had diarrhea or if it was just normal ones, but I had trouble for some reason.
that's normal the further along you get.
Hi I am currently 16 weeks pregnant, and it seems at night I am constantly getting up to go to the bathroom(urinate). It is not a uti, but is very frustrating due too not being able to fall asleep quick enough without needing to go. Any tips or suggestions? Any would be so helpful. Thank you ladies!
Has anyone passed out while pregnant? I had a scare the other day at work. I'm 17 weeks pregnant and it's my first pregnancy. I went to the ER and they ran a bunch of tests and made sure the babies heart beat was ok. The conclusion was that I was dehydrated. Drinking more fluids especially water is so important during pregnancy. They said it's really important to listen to your body. If you need to rest than rest. Lesson learned.
i just recently had another upper GI scope done and i was completely out i had it done 1/8/14 and for the past day or so when i go to the bathroom i throw up while going and when i get up to leave the bathroom i have almost but not totally completely fainting or black out spells it hasn't actually happened but i feel very very very light headed like i am going too
I was thinking the same thing. I'm going to call my doctor early Monday morning if I'm still feeling the same way.
Hi,
This has happened to me 4 or 5 times... you may have "vasovagal syncope" (situational fainting) and it's likely related to the low oxygen on the airplane... I usually get it after I've fallen asleep for a few minutes, on the way up (I've not gotten it on descent)-- you breathe more shallow when you sleep, so get even less oxygen (and it's low on airplanes to begin with).
I wake up feeling sick, get up, and pass out near the bathroom (never usually actually sick).
So the first time it happened it was at 230am I had to get up to go to the bathroom and as soon as I woke up I instantly felt extremely nauseated and dizzy, got up out of bed walked a couple steps then my eyes blacked out, waited a couple sec for them to come back walked into the bathroom sat down still feeling like im about to throw up.
So I don't know if these episodes are just random isolated occurrences or what. I've gone to my PCP and she thinks its nothing but it keeps happening.
Im a healthy active 25 year old woman. For the past 5 months ive experiences these strange, unexplainable, black out fainting episodes. The only medication I take is 30mg vyvance in the morning, 75mg trazadone at night for sleep, then ocella for birth control. I also take multi viamins b12, zinc.
Slowly my vision started going out, until I could see anymore. I walked out of the room I was in, to ask where the nearest bathroom was while sounding like was going to vomit, I found it without seeing where I was going and I sat down and then it wen away. I didn't have another episode until I was 15. I had the same symptoms except I actually vomited. Then it happened again six months later, I didn't throw up, I actually fainted and was carried to the nurses office.
