sry its long girls but i jsut needed to vent this and see if this ever happened to anyone eles..
yesterday i collapsed twice while i was at practice. we were just having a team meeting and i got up to help the girls set up and i got dizzy and my heart started racing. i went into the locker room and sat down. when i got back up i was so dizzy i fell down. then i got back up to make it back into the gym and i fell down in the doorway. it was such a horrible experience. i couldnt see right and my hearing was all muffled and my heart was racing. when i got to the doctor my pulse was 220 and my temp was 95 but i was sweating. the did ekgs, blood test and then sent me for a chest x-ray and nuclear scan to rule out blood clots. all that came back fine and now im wearing a halter pack to check my heart for 24 and have to have an eckocardiogram tomorrow. they said they might never know why it happened which scares me because then how am i supposed to know if it is gonna happen again. thanks for letting me vent.

PS, the information about the tilt table test comes from a world renowned cardiologist.
I guess every doctor differs because i have had a few doctors recommend this...they were also fabulous cardiologists.
same thing here...i guess every doctor has a different opinion...but opinions are like a$$holes everyone's got one!! (yes girls, you can thank FH for that lovely witicism!!)

Re: nwr: scary day
This happened to me about 9 years ago. I would pass out for no reason and my heart would race. I had the thing hooked up to my heart for 24 hours. That came back fine. Then the doctors thought that I might be epileptic, so I was hooked up to 22 electrodes (pasted to my head) and I was in the hospital for 4 days. This was after my EEG. They monitored my brain waves the entire time, and they found out that I was not epileptic, but they still to this day do not know what was wrong with me. I am happy to say that I haven't had any episodes since and it has been 9 years. good luck with everything.
