Another post on dizziness/blackouts

I think I had mentioned on the 4th that I spent time in the ER. I had been walking at a slow pace for approx half a block and WHAM! my world shattered. The dizziness took over in my head, I yelled for my SO and my face was by then planted into the cement,full force. My face is pretty messed up. I was taken to the ER(by my SO), they ran EKG,blood sugars,CMP,and god knows what else. All tests came back to show I am in perfect health. Including BP/pulse/Oxy level in blood etc... They sent me home after 3.5 hours. Since I have been home, Iam weak,had some PTSD and still not feeling up to par. I went back to the doctor this morning and they still find nothing. My BP/pulse etc.. is even better then on the 4th! They did take me off work til next week. If I am not better by then. They will run a 24 hr heart monitor harness on me and do a CT scan. So to those that have just posted about being dizzy, Don't ignore it please!! Something is causing it. It could be a quick fix of food/drinks or something that needs more work. Please! find out the reason. Oh, yes this has given me a new perspective of life. I worry if they don't get this figured out,I will not be able to have my surgery Aug 12th (full story w/humor can be found on the ND board)LOL Take care Kelly/tink

Thanks for sharing this. We really do have to be careful and contact our doctors. It can be so many things. Usually it is just not eating or drinking enough but then it can be even worse then that. I am glad you are okay. Sorry about your injuries. That sounds so painful! Hugs, connie d

I will be praying that they can get this figured out and that you will get a clean bill of health for surgery.  Hang in there! (((Hugs))) Michelle
