fainting
I am just approaching my senior year in college and will be moving back to my school in august. I recently was hospitalized for a sever drop in blood pressure that caused me to faint three times. It was due to that I had alcohol, a sleeping aid, and two extra strength tylenol. This wasn't on purpose, merely accidental thinking. I also have anxiety problems and adult add. I am on lexapro and take adderrall during the school year.

Fire department officials said the wires were disguised by the darkness, the running water and the growing number of startled neighbors and passing drivers who came running to help. Unbeknownst to the first people who tried to help the victim of the crash, an adult male, the water was electrified.
First of all your problem is not easy to diagnose even for experienced Doctors, therefore don't take for granted any diagnosis based on small or partial clinical evidence.
If the problem is from bad coordination , not fainting, it could be Ataxia, which can cause Balance Disorder. there are 100s of possible causes but these problems can be related with ears, vision and neurological problems in general.
they can also be triggered by an infection.
Hi,
my name is mike and I'm a very healthy 26 year old. Last night I had what I suppose would be considered an anxiety attack and I wanted to make sure it wasn't something more serious. I've read a little bit about anxiety attacks and I understand that fainting is very rare which is why I am concerned.
Last night I got into a fight with my girlfriend just before bed. We have been driving across the country for two days now so we are already stressed and this added to it.
The love we once had will never come back, although at times I hope and pray that if I am able to afford my own place, perhaps things would be good again. Several times I try to break it off, but find myself longing for him again. I feel like a victim and can't get out of this cycle! In the meantime, my husband tries his best to save our marriage only for the sake of the kids. I know I probably deserve all this pain, but I'm so sad, depressed, and confused.
I'm scared. Is passing out something that happens regularly for a pregnant women?
I'm 6 weeks also and I am really dizzy first thing in the morning when I wake up as well as nausea. Sometimes it seems like I will just feel better if I did puke :( I have some cramps too, not bad but just like minor period cramps. I was told as long as the cramps don't stop you from doing your daily activities then it's perfectly normal!!
although i haven't been treated for fainting, i do see a wonderful doctor in toledo, ohio who is very in-tune with syncope. he and his associates are currently treating me for dysautonomia, but you may want to contact his office for advice. they are all so sweet there. his name is dr. blair grubb at the university of toledo medical center. he's in the cardiology department. there is also a support group for syncope; i think it's called "stars".

(CNN) -- Rights group Amnesty International has condemned a reported Saudi court ruling sentencing a man to be paralyzed as retribution for having paralyzed another man as "outrageous."
In a statement issued Tuesday, the rights group called the punishment "torture," adding that it "should on no account be carried out."
Local media reports about the case surfaced over the weekend.
Yeah I fainted at work 2 weeks ago (I'm 17 weeks). If I get really hot, I will start to black out. With my first I passed out in the shower.. thank God my husband was there! She was born very healthy and is a strong 2 year old:) I think I pass out mostly due to me having really low blood pressure during pregnancy.. I would talk to your doctor about it of you're worried.
hi.
i have just come back from my duke of Edinburgh gold expedition ( 4 days of hard core walking up mountains!) and i am honestly quite scared.
I've been fainting A LOT recently, and getting headaches too. i've had hypoglycemia for a few years now, but i know how to manage it, and know what to do when my hands start shaking - and it's never been worse than fainting and feeling awful.
Usually, my vision gets yellow in color and I feel lightheadedness, then it is time to get my head down. I have avoided actually fainting for over 20 years. In older people when their heart stops, they immediately fall down (no warning signs). This has happened to people in our family and the fall started their heart again. She should have her iron checked to make sure that she is not anemic. If she keeps fainting, it would be good to get her heart checked out just to be safe.
To qualify....My abusive first husband, i did not charge, his next "victim" did, and he went away for a year. Had I had charged him when he abused me, he would have had a stiffer sentence when the second victim did charge him. He attended court ordered anger management classes and stayed single after going to jail and attending classes. He decided that dating women, but not living with them was safer for him,.
They told me to schedule and OB appointment but havent cause Im waiting to get accepted for mediade. So what shall I do? Since this is taking to long.
Here is my scenario i had a very small cut on my thumb about a day old and went to get a band aid from my companies first aid kit. As i opened it i notice there was blood on the kit. I totally freaked out and looked all over my hands. I am just worried that their could have been hiv blood on there that got into my cut. It was partially closed but i had slightly scraped it getting my keys out of my pocket and that is why i went to get a band aid and was red but not dripping blood.
