What causes recurrent dizziness, blurred vision and fainting?
Patient: I have been having episodes ... Light headed, blurred vision only lasting for a moment and passing. The other day while at work (STFA) in the OR I had that feeling, then the next thing I remember I was on the floor and people taking off my gown and mask.... that was Tuesday and I have felt the same feeling over the past two days, but not passing out again..... I called my PCP and con not get in until next Thursday Doctor: Hello!My name is Dr. Aida and I am glad to attend you on Healthcaremagic!Regarding your concern, I would recommend performing further tests to investigate for the possible causes underlying your symptoms (epilepsy seizures, orthostatic hypotension, cardiac arrhythmia, thyroid dysfunction). For this reason, I would recommend performing some tests:- an EEG- a cardiac ultrasound and an ECG Holter monitoring- blood electrolytes- fasting glucose for hypoglycemia- thyroid hormone levels- complete blood count for anemia.- a Head Up Tilt test for orthostatic hypotension. You should discuss with your doctor on these tests. Hope you will find this answer helpful!Kind regards!
