Hello Sir/ Madam, I have faced a situation of suddenly fainting a couple of times. Generally it happened when i have just got up form sleep suddenly and then after a while feel a bit of breathlessness and then suddenly i find myself on the floor. I do not even remember how i had fallen and when did i fell. Just after a while i get back to normal. Please help me in diagnosing the right issue and is this a serious disorder?
Hello dear, The symptoms as mentioned in your post can be due to:1. Any pathology in the vestibular apparatus in inner ear (it is associated with maintenance of body posture & balance)2. Any fluctuation in blood pressure levels such as Hypotension.3. Decrease in blood sugar levels (Hypoglycemia)4. Deficiency of certain nutrients like Iron, vitamin B 12, Calcium, etc. which also interferes with blood formation & nerve conduction.5. Tension/stress & lack of adequate rest and sleep. Investigations like complete blood count, estimation of blood pressure and blood sugar levels will be helpful in clinching the diagnosis. A CT scan of brain might be required to rule out any pathology. So, it will be better to consult your General Physician & get a proper physical examination done. So that appropriate management steps could be taken. Meanwhile, you should maintain adequate HY Chat Doctor.  There is no need to worry, you will be fine. Wishing you a good health. Thanks & take care.
