NWR- i had a kinda scary morning and wanted to know if anyone has an info about this (sorry its long) ****UPDATED***

Original post by ILOVEBRIAN2008

so today fh and i went to visit his mom in the hospital (she had surgery but is fine) and all of a sudden i started to get really hot and dizzy...then i start to black out and next thing i know everyone is around me 'saying omg are u ok?!?!?!' this isnt the first time ive passed out, and i kinda knew it was coming when i started to get hot and dizzy but we were in a hospital room with his mom, dad and grandparents and his grandpa was sitting in the seat and i wasnt about to be like 'omg i need to sit' i didnt want them to know what was going on so i just leaned against the window ledge and hoped the feeling went away..well it didnt and i passed out (not to mention my back is scraped up from when i fell- so that hurts)

i get this feeling probably 2-3 times a year but usually like 2 of the times im somewhere where i can sit down and if i can sit usually i can get the feeling to pass...i went to the doctor once like 2 years ago and they gave me a few tests and blood tests and all he found is that my cholestrol is a little high..and sometimes my blood presure is a little low

whats scary about this time is that FH and his family think it was a seizure bc i was shaking, my eyes were open, and i made a few sounds before i 'woke up'

the nurse told me i should get checked out at the ER but if i was feeling ok now i can just call my doctor (and sadly to say i left bc i have school work that i have to do tonight, and so does fh and i didnt want to spend all day there) so im gonna call the doctor tomorrow

does anyone experience anything like this? know anything about it? fhs family said that i should maybe ask my doctor for a referal to the neurologist

im feeling ok now just a little weak and my head hurts a little but im attempting to read a thousand pages for my grad paper thats due tomorrow..i just wanted to see if any of u girls know anything about this TIA

************* UPDATE**************************

ok so i went to my doctor today he said its prob that vago something or other but i had extremely low blood pressure today butttttt then the nurse hooked me to an echocardiogram thing and after she did it quick and printed that paper out was like 'thats weird' and she checked me to make sure everything was on correctly...left the room to talk to the doctor, came back and was like 'you need to go to a cardiologist' i was like what did that test show??? and shes like its ok, im like umm but what did it say? and shes like u have a VERY low heart beat...awesome...oh and i read the paper (bc they game it to me to hive the heart guy thats next door) and it says that i shower multiple atrial premature complexes, short r-r complexes..and i have no clue what any of this means lol but obviously its not that great...i have an appointment with the cardiologist in a week and a hlaf so hopefully ill know more then...weirdly enough im not actually worried, im just hoping its nothing toooo bad..anyways thanks again girls for all the info u guys gave me yesterday!!

vaso vagal? is that what you mean? well, bradycardia (low heart rate) when symptomatic, often presents with these similar symptoms. Without seeing your ELECTROCARDIOGRAM i can't tell if the machine's interpretation is correct, however, premature atrial complexes (pacs) relates to the electrical conduction and pacing of your heart. I can't give you more detail because I don't have the tracing in front of me. I think you should make an appointment with a cardiologist. If you need any reccommendations, FM me.

vaso vagal thats it! thats what he started to explain but then i had the echocardiogram (i think thats what its called) and the nurse took that and said 'hmm thats weird' and checked to make sure everything was on correctly and then left to show the doctor and came back and was like 'u need to go to a cardiologist' and that was it the doctor didnt come back to talk to me or anything lol i wish i could show u the thing bc it means nothing to me haha just a bunch of squiggle lines..but i do have an appointment with a cardiologist in a week and a half..but thanks for the info!
