My daughter had a D&C for a miscarriage almost a year ago. She started fainting shortly after that. My issues is the fainting spells have increased to 3 or more times a day. She is seeing a doctor but nothing has been done. She has had injuries from passing out and hitting things. This seems to happen in the shower, standing up and setting down and eating. Any advice what she should do?
