I’ve never actually fainted but often feel like I am going to faint. Wondering if anyone else has similar symptoms and has any thoughts on what is causing it. It’s been going on for a couple of years on and off and in that time I’ve had plenty of blood tests (and a pregnancy/birth) and nothing has been detected. Sometimes I think it’s anxiety as I feel like worse in a shop where there is a lot of visual stimulation and I need to get out. Sometimes I feel like it might be due to not having enough food. Although I feel like I eat a lot. I had a large dinner last night and this morning I had two pieces of peanut butter toast at 7.30am, two oat/chocolate cookies at 9am and a large handful of nuts (plus four glasses of water within this time) and at 10am while out at playgroup with my baby I felt faint until I ate something. I am still breastfeeding at the moment. Sometimes I also feel like sleep deprivation is causing an off balance feeling. Ultimately I don’t know what is causing it which is frustrating me but it’s getting to a point where I am becoming worried about going out alone with my little ones in case I do actually faint.
