Have you ever fainted and what does it feel like?!


Question: Have you ever fainted and what does it feel like!?
2 months ago I fell to the ground and seemed to lose all abilities, legs and arms were shaking after I semi passed out!. Had a trip to the ER by ambulance and after all test were done Dr said I fainted syncope!?!?!? I have never passed out before or fainted so Im not sure what happened!. Im certain it was more than fainting!. It seemed like someone was cutting the circulation off to my brain and shutting my body down, my legs were twitching and my hands were cold thats all I remember, I cant think of any medical problem and neither can the Drs!. I do want to state that I had Mono 2 years ago and its still in my bloodwork!. thanks for any help bencWww@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Fainting is when your brain determines that it is not getting enough blood flow (& thus enough oxygen) so it "arranges" to increase the blood volume by assuring that your heart doesn't have to pump blood uphill!.--it simply puts you in a horizontal position, which usually brings you around quickly!. Its a natural enough process, but its important to investigate the cause, If you were actually twitching, it seems remotely possible that you actually had a seizure!. Mention this to the doctor & possibly he will order an eeg or other tests!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I've never fainted!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Nope, sorry never fainted, but my friend Zipo has!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i only fainted a couple of times!. The first thing i noticed is i suddenly become weak, then my vision slowly receding to black!.!.!.like i was slowly closing my eyes!.!.!.but i wasn't!. My brain was still functioning because i remember thinking "what's wrong with my vision!?" then i fainted LOL!.!.!.pretty cool!.!.!.and scary experience!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

things seem to go black and u lose all sense of feeling and strength!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

When I fainted, there was this like buzzing in my ears and I KNEW I was going down about a second before my body just went towards the ground!.!.!.!.THEN I was told (after I woke up) that the whites of my eyes showed and my body was like shaking or convulsing or something!.!.!.!.but I was fine (except an awful bump on my head where I hit the ground)!.

If you're nervous about it, ask the Doc for an EEG (checks your brain wave patterns), but it SOUNDS like a normal fainting spell (I've only had it once in my life, thank GOD)!.

glad you're better!! ;)Www@Answer-Health@Com

I have fainted twice!. First one was no warning, just woke up on the floor, I was in the hospital tho for a procedure-non serious actually!. The second time, I just felt weak and remember that I couldn't discern any noises - that was odd -!.!. this happened to me in Wally World!.!.!.You need to see another doctor and get a complete physical and blood work done!.!.there is a reason for this happening!. Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I fainted totally a few times, the reason was a horrible headache!. I was sitting there one moment, suddenly getting this very sick feeling in my stomach and the next thing I knew was laying on the floor!.!.!.!.!.!.I used to get horrible headaches from lack of estrogen!.!.!.!.!.so I am on it and I am fine!.

Did your doctors check you for something like blood clots!? Because they can cut off the circulation!. Blood clots or thrombosis is really the only thing I can think of other than a mini stroke!.!.!.!.but I assume that you have had all this checked, so maybe you need to get you a second opinion!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I fainted when I was 12!. I was sitting down at the time and started to feel sick, i just ignored because i thought it would probably be OK in a minute or so!. It got worse and I fainted!. I lost my vision and all feeling in my limbs and fell forward off the chair!. As soon as I hit the floor I could see again!. Everyone in the room left me a minute apart from one person and a couple of minutes later I felt fine!. So its like you body just stops functioning for a few seconds, but then it goes back to normal!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
