passing out...

[justmehere]

every once in awhile i pass out. i don't know why. and when i went to the doctor nothing was out of the ordinary. like today i was getting dressed in the bathroom after i took my shower and the next thing i know i hear a bang and then i'm on the floor.(the bang was from wear i fell backwards and hit my head on the door)
i don't know what caused it i mean my shower wasn't too hot or anything.
does this happen to anyone else?

It may be lack of sleep
Stress
Or something with ur brain
I recommend getting a CT scan.

Maybe you should record the things you do before every fall. You might see a pattern. I also think you should go to another doctor and explain to him or her all the times you fell.

mmkay. i'll have to keep this in mind. it's just odd. it never happens when i'm playing soccer or outside or anything. but i'll bring it up to my docter next time i go to the doctor.

Drastic changes from one activity to another can have an excessive wear and tear on the human body. Whne you passed out, before you passed out did you change your physical position. An example would be setting in a very low chair and then all of a sudden jumping straight up. This is called orthostatic-hypotension. Your blood pressure drastically drops causeing you to pass out. For some more information, if you could answer these questions it would really help.
Do you have any symptoms, anything (like a little warning that you get before it happens?)
Do you have any allergies to food or medications and have you ingested any of these the days you have passed out?
Are you on any madications?
Any recent surgies?
What do you feel like after you wake up from passing out?
How long are you passed out?
Any taste in your mouth before or after?

This could really help me figure a few things out.

Do you have any symptoms, anything (like a little warning that you get before it happens?)just being lite headed and my vision goes kinda blury.
Do you have any allergies to food or medications and have you ingested any of these the days you have passed out?nope.
Are you on any madications?nope.
Any recent surgies?nah.
What do you feel like after you wake up from passing out?um still kinda lite headed but it passes over pretty quickly.
How long are you passed out? only a few seconds.
Any taste in your mouth before or after? not really.

Orthostatic-hypotension, I have it and you described it perfectly, i am not a physician yet but I wouls still go and talk to your physician. One more question, how long has this been happening?

No problem man, I want to be a Dr. so I love doing these things. It is actually a really common things in males around the older teenage years due to the fact that we do a lot of excessive growing and our body has to compensate for the large area to pump blood.

or you could have knicked your head recently, which has caused you to incure brain damage, so will trigger a section of you brain to "knock you out" so that you can recover, levi might have said it, but when you do a lot of sport, you have circulation problems because you need blood around your body, so your brain makes you pass out as a life support, so you can recover and not make recovery slower
