Q: Losing Consciousness After Diarrhea

asked by: djwerewolf on January 8th, 2008

Today was the second time it has happened in the past year. I would have a rumbling in my stomach, then I would go diarrhea then I would loose consciousness and wake up on the floor. The diarrhea I would have is also alot compared to I usually have. Is this a serious thing or is this common?

Losing consciousness is not a good sign. The only explanation i have is you're chronically dehydrated.

Make a doctors appointment (because it may be caused by an underlying medical condition) and until then drink lots of water and eat healthy. : )
