Vasovagal syncope, the most common cause of fainting, occurs in otherwise healthy people. It can affect people of all ages, but is particularly common in young women. It is also known as Neurocardiogenic Syncope or Vasodepressor Syncope. As these terms suggest, the cause is low heart rate or blood pressure, leading to inadequate circulation to the brain. This results in fainting, or loss of consciousness (i.e., syncope).

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
I spent almost a full year nearly passing out every time I got up in the middle of the night, thinking it was "normal", that maybe my blood sugar was just a little low or something. I had bruises all over my knees from bumping into furniture at night because I couldn't walk straight, or would try to pass out. I finally had a couple of really bad spells during the daytime that sent me to a doctor. I am not on medication currently (used to be on florinef), but still have 3 or 4 near faints every year -- I am "lucky" that as I pass out and my body starts to roll over (I usually faint with my head rolling over onto the floor), I wake up once my head gets a little horizontal.
