Re: Fainting

[(Anonymous)]

I didn't talk about it with a doctor, actually. The woman taking blood was just a researcher and said it was probably because I'd only had ~5 hours of sleep... But when I had blood taken recently they didn't seem worried, just told me to lie down flat. I hope it's okay :\

Go to a cardiologist. Please. Please please please. Vasovagal syncope is recurring and can have lasting, devastating effects. Aside from the most obvious effects on your heart and entire cardiovascular system, the events can damage any organ in your body due to lack of blood/oxygen supply.

Re: Fainting

Uh I *have* vasovagal syncope (due to low blood pressure), and have lived with it for decades. The only time I had fainting spells was during puberty (yay hormones) and as long as you're still breathing after you blackout, there is NO damage like you are suggesting.

Now, if your heart stops entirely, or restarts in an abnormal rhythm (which, believe me, you'll know), or if you stop breathing entirely, then yes those are causes for concern. It sounds to me like OP had a minor episode, and would likely not have done any of the damage you are shrieking about.

A visit to OP's GP may be in order, so s/he can decide whether or not to bring a specialist onboard.

Last time I had bloodwork done, they elevated my feet, told me not to talk, and gave me a five minute recovery window. I am not eligible to donate, though, because of this.
