Don,
I have the same problem. I am 30 years old. It seems to hit me I will be sitting around feeling just fine and then it hits, I get naseaus, my blood pressure drops and then it rises again. The first time it happend I was taken to the emergency room after feeling great I wound up having to go thru 6 IV bags from dehydration. 5 hours later I left the hospital feeling great again. And the doctors were not able to explain to me why it happened, or what caused it. I was taken to NY Hospital where I figured they would be able to answer this, but they had no clue, they tought it was a viral infection. Now when it happens to me, I am able to plan in between each spell, it seems to happen a few times, usually 3 or 4 fainting spells and then it goes away. And there is usually 15 minutes between each spell. I am still looking for an answer why this happens. I am perfectly healthy and suffer from no allergies. Good luck and if you hear of anything new, let me know.

ANYONE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM AND SYMPTOMS, PLEASE EMAIL ME. LAST MAY I WAS IN THE HOSPITAL FOR WHAT THE DRS THOUGHT WAS A CLOGGED ARTERY. I WAS ON SERIOUS BLOOD THINNERS AND TESTS FOR SEVERAL DAYS. ALL NEGATIVE. AFTER LEAVING THE HOSPITAL, I WENT TO TARGET THE NEXT DAY TO PICK UP SOME THINGS AND AFTER PAYING FOR THEM AND READY TO LEAVE, I BECAME VERY WEAK, CLAMMY, HAD A SEVERE ACHE IN THE UPPER RIGHT SIDE OF THE STOMACH. I HAD TO SIT DOWN, THEN I HAD TO LAY DOWN IN THE FLOOR. THEY CALLED THE PARAMEDICS AND THEY BEGAN AN IV AND TOOK ME BACK TO THE HOSPITAL. MY BLOOD PRESSURE HAD BOTTOMED OUT AND AT THE HOSPITAL, THEY THOUGHT I WAS BLEEDING INTERNALLY BECAUSE MY BLOOD COUNT HAD DROPPED VERY LOW. AFTER SPENDING THE NIGHT THERE, ALL WAS WELL AND BP AND BLOOD COUNT WAS NORMAL. NOTHING SINCE BUT THE DRS COULD NOT TELL ME IF IT WOULD HAPPEN AGAIN AND THEY DID NOT SEEM TO KNOW TOO MUCH ABOUT THIS. PLEASE ENLIGHTEN ME IF YOU HAVE ANY INFORMATION. THANKS, BH
