Syncope

Living with the above. you get use to it. I have been fainting for 10 years on and off. It started when I was 18 changed jobs it stopped. Didn’t come back for a couple of years. As I said its been on and off. It started again when I started my new job about 2 years ago I was sent to work doctor. They have done tests all came back clear.

But this year around May I went for my 2nd Tilt Table and my heart did usual went to 160 (thats normal for me) 3 times within 10 minutes they stopped the test as there was a fear of heart attack I was like yeah thanks for sharing I am only 27. So they gave me water and I got off the table true Louise style I fainted. The nurses took vitals and I went again.

Was just about to leave hospital and I went again. I got admitted for the 1st time in my life. I spent the next 12 days in hospital it was 50/50 good / bad. They made so many good things and messed up on so many things also.

But after still doing EEG / MRI / Chest X-Ray. Scan of heart they still don’t know why for no reason my heart will shoot up to 160 and I end up on the floor. I have been put on Beta Blockers but the side effects are horrible I have never suffered from chest pain with this and now I have it. Its horrible. I sometimes have to press on my chest to breath and tell myself to breath.

More tests coming up so hopefully after 10 years they might figure out whats going on.

Fingers crossed.
