Common Questions and Answers about Fainting during exercise

Avatar f tn Second, gokart racing will probably get your heart rate up, but mostly from the adrenaline rush, which may trigger arrhythmias. Having arrhythmias during this type of exercise is different from having arrhythmias while jogging or running. PVCs usually stay away or at least reduce in amount during aerobic exercise. PACs and supraventricular arrhythmias are far more likely to happen both with aerobic exercise and adrenaline rush.
Avatar f tn I think you need to slowly increase your exercise level, not push so hard during warm up drills. The drills might be too intense for you. If it happens again, you should definitely slow down and rest...stop before you faint. Also, be sure you're well-hydrated before exercising. Do you have low blood pressure? If so, you might be prone to fainting.
Avatar n tn Yes I am with Spade, it is probably best you go and see a doctor. It is not normal to pass out during exercise though if you were not properly hydrated before you exercised it could cause you to become dehydrated and lead you to pass out. However, if it feels like you might always pass out every time you exercise I might suggest avoiding exercise until you have been properly seen.
Avatar f tn Anyways today I woke up felt fine actually felt great went to the park for about 5 or 6 hours was playing basketball and after a bit I felt like I was like fainting almost. Really weird it passed pretty quick but do you think it was more to the exercise? It was beautiful today in Dallas so we went up the park and I got carried away with the game. Just seeing if this is opiate withdrawal or I was just dehydrated and was over doing it.
Avatar f tn For those who do, the most common are breathlessness and chest discomfort. Other signs are fainting during physical activity, (are your symptoms...strong rapid heartbeats that feel like a pounding in the chest..., and fatigue, especially with physical exertion. You should get a doctor's evaluation regarding the proper exercise if any for heart muscle desease. Your dx of IHSS is 11 years ago?! Usually, and the guidelines for a stent implant is for an artery occlusion greater than 70%.
Avatar n tn My 20-year-old son keeps fainting with exercise. He has no other health conditions, and has had a stress echo, basic blood work, chest x-ray. He has seen 2 cardiologists and has only been diagnosed with a high voltage ekg. He does not use drugs or alcohol. He fainted twice in his Ju Jitzu class and today playing flag football. He often skips breakfast, and probably doesn't drink enough fluids.
1622431 tn?1299070442 Do you have lots of PACs while you exercise? I did, and it was terrible! If you do, beta blockers may be helpful, but the best cure is, like I said, keep going. They are probably caused by your fear and anxiety, reducing that will most likely make them go away. Again: PACs are the most benign arrhythmia there is, and it's considered a normal phenomenon that we all have but most of us don't notice. PACs during exercise is not dangerous. PVCs during exercise can indicate something.
Avatar n tn It is always important to give the name of your diabetes medication/s, the dosage, when you test, the glucose test ranges, your diabetes lifestyle [diet, weight, exercise regimen], and how often the symptom has occurred. Usually this helps to pinpoint a reason for the disturbance, or a search on the intet produces favorable results.
Avatar n tn People with this syndrome may show prolongation of the Q-T interval during physical exercise, intense emotion (such as fright, anger or pain) or when startled by a noise. Some arrhythmias are potentially fatal, causing sudden death. In one type of inherited LQTS, the person may also become deaf. Sorry for the report, but it does require immediate medical attention.. Studies of otherwise healthy people with LQTS indicate that they had at least one episode of fainting by the age of 10.
Avatar n tn Shortly after passing my annual physical last week, I fainted during the following blood test (fainting in the clinic quite normal for me following needle sticks). After fainting, my pulse was 110 and my BP was 104/59, and stayed that way for the 20 minutes the nurses insisted I lay in the chair. After fainting, I could feel my heartbeat, and it felt fluttering or irregular. I have felt the sensation before, and it usually quickly clears up on it's own.
Avatar m tn Yikes, sorry about the injuries from fainting. As for continuing with your exercise regime, I recommend that you look to your cardiologist for a reading on that. Personally, I would be pretty wary about continuing with strenuous workouts, at least for now, given your history. Exercise appears to be a factor in bringing on your episodes. Best of luck with the electrical mapping when you get to it.
Avatar m tn Does the heart pump too slowly? Does the heart rate increase 2 to 3 fold during stress or exercise? Symptoms associated with need for a pacemaker: Fainting, near fainting, dizziness, lack of energy, fatigue, shortness of breath and exercise intolerance. Extreme slowing or complete stopping of the heartbeat can be fatal. In other cases, people may have no symptoms but are at high risk for dangerously slow heart rates because of disturbances of the electrical system of the heart.
Avatar f tn Over the past few weeks, I randomly have these episodes. I start feeling like the walls are going to close in on me. I feel like I may pass out (hasn't actually happened, I don't think I've ever fainted in my life) and usually have to hold onto something so that I don't fall over. I also feel like I'm going to throw up, and I usually can stop that from happening. I noticed the last time this happened that I start sweating a lot. I'm 19.
Avatar f tn Did u try finding out the reason?? I know fainting can be caused by many things during pregnancy but some can lead to more complex situation.. U ahould consult ur doctor as it could be due to high or low blood pressure or dehydration etc...
Avatar f tn I am currently 18 weeks pregnant and since i was 12 weeks I have the tendancy to faint, i feel fine one minute and then the next im on the ground,but when i snap out of it i feel realllly energetic,its kinda weird. I asked my DOC about this and she said I need to get more snacks in during the day But I eat ALOT at least every 2 hours. I've heard this is normal through many pregnancies, but has anyone else experienced this? Thanks for anyone who can help.
Avatar f tn This sounds a bit like psvt right? I mentioned it to my doctor and because I have no symptoms (sweating, fainting etc.) they didn't seemed worried. One doctor just said "stop running for a bit". But I don't want to stop running. Should I push harder for them to investigate or should I just stop running. It seems if I keep my heart rate around 120 this issue never kicks in and after I stop it goes back to resting rate fairly normally. Any feedback would be interesting.
7748835 tn?1393868668 I take a hot bath and my heart rate goes up to 180 most times and I feel quite dizzy, short of breath, shaky. I get very tired during exercise. I can hear my heart beat in my ears during exercise and get very short of breath. (I have asthma also, but controlled, and sob not from asthma) I need to know what this could be immediantly.
1616038 tn?1315954103 Had a problem with PVCs during exercise for months. Had 500+ during 4 hours of xc skiing while wearing a Holter. Then I read about rice contaminated with arsenic and things clicked - problem started when I began eating a lot of organic brown rice - ~5 cups of flour, gbars with brown rice syrup and hot rice mush for 2 or 3 breakfasts per week. I stopped the rice and took an over the counter heavy metal cleanse and in 3 days NO MORE PVCS! Hope this helps.
