Blackout, Or Seizures
Posted: 03-08-06 14:43pm

:?: im 36, I had what felt like a headrush the other night. I knew I was getting dizzy, its happened before occasionally, but before I knew it, I was on the floor trembling. Wheni came to, I was hearing someone calling my name, I had no idea where I was at for what seemed like hours,but was only seconds I was really disoriented for about 30 minutes after that. What is this? What started like a blackout, semmed like a seizure,needless to say it scared the heck out of me.Any ideas or advice???

Hello, yes it' s scarey huh. I too just posted a reply, for strange symptom
i've had for years, and just now it was brought to my attentioni "might" be having teeny seizures. I blacked out a year ago after one of my spells. I could hear someone talking to me, it was not for long though, but what seems forever, I feel ya! But it can be alot of things. Read on the net. It's very informative. Don't read too much into things. It does not have to be serious. But get it checked, you will feel better. It can be anything from anxiety/stress, blood pressure, metabolic reasons. Etc. Or just plain old syncope, (fancy word for fainting) sometimes fixable heart problems are even the cause. I have to go decipher my issue too. Good luck.

Hi there,
your symptoms sound very similiar to mine.
i get very dizzy and then it is like my brain switches off for a second, like a zap and i come to on the floor, usually in a kneeling position. this happens several times and then stops.
witness's said it was like i was having electrical shocks through my body.
i feel no pain.
I've am being treated for panic disorder, but I personnally don't think this is the cause.
I am however terrifed of these attacks and am very anxious about having another one, so the treatment for panic disorder will at least take nervousness away i suppose.
i am having a heart moniter fitted on tues, that i wear for four days and am seeing a neurologist in july, so i will let you know what happens
