2 WEEKS AGO I FELL....THE SIDEWALK WAS LIKE A MAGNET AND IT PULLED ME QUICKLY TO IT AND THE CRASH WAS UNAVOIDABLE. I SUFFERED A BLACK EYE, BROKEN NOSE AND HAD TO HAVE SEVERAL STITCHES PUT INTO MY VERY SORE LIP. I HAD NEVER HEARD OF THE TERM OF VASO VAGAL BUT A MED. SECRETARY PUT THE TERM TO ME AND NOW I AM WONDERING....BECAUSE ABOUT 10 MONTHS AGO I FELL AND BROKE MY ARM AS I TRIED TO BRACE MY FALL........IN EACH INCIDENT I WAS JUST DOWN THE STEPS OF MY FRONT PORCH ....I TRY TO REMEMBER WHAT MY FEET WERE DOING AND ASK MYSELF...."DID I TRIP"...HOW DID IT HAPPEN BECAUSE I AM A VERY CAREFUL PERSON AND STEP CAUTIOUSLY MOST TIMES.???I AM 76 YEAR OLD WOMAN AND USUALLY FEEL GREAT....I'M NOT AS PEPPY AS I ONCE WAS AND I DO NOT MOVE AROUND ALL THAT MUCH BUT STAY PUT ALOT ON MY PUTER.....CAN ANYONE OUT THERE RELATE.......I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW MORE ABOUT VASO VAGAL........I DO SEE A DOCTOR ON A REGULAR BASIS FOR CHECKUPS......THANKS
