Can Eating Disorder Be The Cause Of Lightheadedness, Fuzziness And Blacking Out?

everytime i stand up, or start walking, my vision gets like fuzzy then goes to black and i cant see and then i get light headed but it goes away after a couple of seconds. what is this? its not from standing up too fast, ive tested that theory, also i have an eating disorder, but even when i eat and am healthy it still happens, the doctors said i was fine a little while ago, nothing was wrong. this has been happening for a while now

HI
Well come to HCM
Your symptom is suggestive of orthostatic hypotension and this is not the disease and neither because of the eating habit, this is happens due to the pull down of blood flow against the gravity and this cause less blood supply in the brain that's all, when ever you stand take care be patience while standing, hope this information helps.
