VV & cervical disk problems

From: Jazmnsweet@aol.com

Comments

I am a 52 yr old female just diagnosed with VV by a tilt table test. I feel as though I precipitated the attack by falling asleep with my arms crossed over the back of my head (cut off blood to head). When I awoke, head & arms were numb & I passed out. Also, lost control of bowels & bladder (what a nightmare). I have cervical disk problems in my neck, wouldnt it be feasible to believe this may have caused it. My docs say no. I hate to be on meds like beta blockers if the real cause is the neck problem. Anyone else have anything relative to this? Write me: Jazmnsweet@aol.com
