I also have vaso-vagal reactions. I've been doing some studying into sitting down and crossing your legs, though I'm not sure if it would help you much since your episodes seem to be so spontaneous! I usually get them when I've been standing for long periods of time, then I get hot and then extremely cold and i know if I don't sit down I'll pass out. My first episode was my first day to work as a student nurse! Ha ha

It is for you and your physician to rule out more serious illnesses; Please don't use this online forum as an alternative to getting responsible medical attention and being under the care of a physician for the duration of any unknown, suspected or dangerous vaso-vagal syndrome symptoms.
