Avatar f tn Since I was about 10 years old I have been having these fainting spells. I never have them sitting down just when I am standing. I feel a pressure in my head, then my vision goes black, I hear a roaring in my ears, and they last for only seconds. When I come back I am slightly confused for a second then my head hurts a little, my heart is pounding, I sometimes have coldsweats, and my breathing is faster. I am 24 years old and in the last couple years they have been getting a little worse.
Avatar f tn I have had two fainting spells over the past 5 years where my hands and feet start to tingle before it happens as well as the feeling I have to frequently blinkand my neck feels like it needs to crack, it happened once when I was driving, I pulled over thank god.. After it happens I also have ringing in my ears and sort of the feeling in my head that I was hit with a bat. I have noticed it comes when I have high anxiety or stress.
364288 tn?1300144506 Happy Monday everyone! Hope you all had a great weekend! I just had a quick question for you re: fainting. I've had a few spells on and off nothing to the point where I actually faint but I start feeling like I'm going to pass out. I get sweaty and I feel sick to my stomach. I talked to my Dr. about this and she didn't seem concerned. She said sometimes your blood pressure gets low and it you start feeling that way. Just wondering if anyone has felt like this before? It *****!!
290867 tn?1333569278 hi there, i also had dizzy/near fainting spells and hot and cold flashes over the first few weeks. i've also had heart palpitations (later on, in my 3rd trimester with my 1st pregnancy). you can check your blood pressure and drink gatorade and make sure you have enough salt in your diet if low blood pressure is the issue. i found the near fainting spells went away on their own though.
Avatar m tn I guess what I am asking is, how many of you are having or have had these spells that already have a dx of MS? Thank you, I do not feel so alone now, just seeing all these posts.
Avatar f tn I'm 22 and every couple months at different times of the day I go through spells where i'll suddenly get really light headed and start sweating were in a minute or two I'll be soaking wet. The last time it happend I couldn't catch my breath and both my arms and hands went numb and tingly and i could barely move my fingers. By the time I was able to sit down I was completely pale.

Avatar f tn s the deal, I just turned 14 weeks today and lately I been having fainting spells, It started last week and I spoke to my dr about it and she said that it was normal in pregnancy but I'm really worried and scared now, Today I went to audition for americas got talent and we had to stand in the line and it was really long and nobody came to get me since I was pregnant and I fainted twice on the concrete, The first time my husband caught me and the second time I collapsed and didnt even know it
Avatar f tn If I had to make an educated guess for you, the fainting happened because of the sudden change of position and drop of blood pressure. Have you had other incidents of this or is this a one time thing? Anyway, welcome again and I hope you stick around and join us in the fun and education!
Avatar m tn i just felt like i will faint...but didn't...gart rate was normal around 63-65...i felt good when i stopped watching my phone and looked around..
Avatar f tn Just before I found out what it was, I already resigned from my work because of lightheadedness and fainting spells. Now, I am only staying at home and I rarely feel that way. I'm only experiencing awareness of heartbeat and palpitations. But sometimes I can't even sleep alone because I have a feeling that I will faint. When I go out, I need to have someone beside me because I always feel that something will happen. And I am also overly sensitive to noise and light.
Avatar f tn My 14 yrs old has had fainting spells since she was in first grade. Her fainting spells looked like she was having a seizure. After she had several fainting spells, she was tested for seizures but all the test came back negative. About three years ago we find out she has an enlarged thyroid and hypothyroidism. About six months ago, she had a sleep study done because she waking up ever couple hours every night. The study showed that she was having seizures every couple minutes.

Avatar m tn About 8 weeks ago my daughter started having fainting spells. She didn't loss consciousness, just kind of blackout and then felt very week. We took her to a pedi-cardiologist and they didn't test her, but based on symptoms diagnosed her with vasovagal syncope. She was put on salt pills and increased fluids. No real success, she continued to have symptoms. Then this past week, she started having a hard time breathing. She felt like she couldn't catch her breath.
Avatar f tn I also have fainting spells. They happen once every 6-18 months, and have for the last 10 years...I'm 27. When this first started happening, I had every test imaginable and they found nothing. It's frustrating, but even more than that, it's scary. Last week I fainted from a standing position and smacked my face on the floor, resulting in a busted lip and a headache that hasn't gone away in the last 8 days - likely a concussion.
Avatar f tn I've been in the hospital three times in the past month for fainting spells of unknown origin. My cariovascular system checks out fine: good bp, EKG, heart x-ray, blood enzymes. My fainting spells are always proceeded by a tingling in my toes and fingers. This tingling turns into a partial numbness and then I get these burning sensations almost like I have a sunburn that works its way up to my face. Then my vision is effected, things don't swirl but sort of rock slightly.
Avatar m tn Hi, I am a 21 year old male who had experienced spells of fainting since 10 year old. These fainting spells occur all of a sudden without me doing any physical demanding activities. I play a lot of sports and I eat healthily. Over the years my fainting spells got lesser and lesser. 2 Months ago, I fainted again. I went for a specialist check up and had a bunch of tests taken. ECG test came negative, Tilt Table came negative. My heart rate is healthy, BP is normal.
Avatar f tn You have been assessed by two of us that you NEVER had a risk and you would receive the same assessment from all other members. Your symptoms are possibly indicative of an infection you could have picked up either in Thailand OR upon your arrival home in Australia. Either way, you need to consult your doctor AS SOON AS POSSIBLE since you are experiencing fainting spells.
Avatar m tn My mother has had bouts of fainting and light headedness. Sometimes they come weekly and other times not for 2 months. This has been going on since 2007. She has been admitted to hospital on a number of occasions but each time they have not come to any conclusions as to a diagnosis. These attacks of light headedness last 2-5 minutes. She slurs her speech, gets pins and needles in her arms, and sometimes but not always faints.
Avatar f tn I had one the other day. Not sure if it will happen again. But i heard once uou faint it will happen again. When i fainted theyncalled 911.
Avatar f tn That is a pretty large growth and I would imagine that it is causing lots of symptoms. I've heard of passing out fainting from anemia. B12 is a type pf anemia. Also without knowing how this growth sits it could be pressing on nerves and arteries that supply blood to that area. So yes fainting/passing out or even seizures could be possible. You might encourage your cousin or mother to post.
Avatar n tn I mentioned to the doctor I had two fainting spells, first was November second was in January. No cause has been found. Could there be a connection? Also, explain colon inflammation please. Is that caused by the colitis? Thank you.
