Why Am I Experiencing Fainting While Walking And Standing?
I have had 2 incidents in he past week when I felt like I might faint and had brief moments when I felt like everything was going black. Once I was walking, the second time standing, Neither time lasted more than a few seconds. What might causes be and should I be calling my Dr to be seen?
Your symptom can be due to low blood pressure, but it should be tested properly.
Had I been treating you, I would have liked to get your blood pressure, hemoglobin, thyroid levels done. if they are ok - but still symptoms persist, then an ECG / ECHO may be required to rule out cardiac cause.
more reagrding treatment can be said only after test , so visit your doctor.
Wish you good health! Dr. Manisha Gopal
