fainting episodes with fatigue and nausea Posted: 12-03-07 21:12pm
Help! I have recently had 3 fainting
episodes and can't figure out why? They
they are usually proceeded by slight
nausea in the stomach then possible light
headedness or a spacing feeling in the
head and profuse sweating. Each time I
have passed out for less then 30 seconds
before regaining conciousness.
My doctor has done a blood sugar test
which was normal. An adrenal (saliva)
test was slightly low so he gave me some
cortisol supplements. I don't know if
this is it because I have had an episode
since. Sometimes before and after these
episodes I feel very fatigued.
I regulary exercise and never have an
issues while excersising, these events
have happened not only while standing but
also in the sitting position. I have never
had this problem before, it seems to have
started within the last 6 months.
