I am soooo tired. All I want to do is go to sleep...not surprising after what happened to me yesterday...I updated my journal under TTC but a quick recap...had a fainting/blacking out spell yesterday morning. The frustrating thing is that no one knows why this happens to me. And for the next day I am tired and weak...and sleeping so much yesterday in the afternoon certainly didn't help me last night! I was awake far too early this morning.

Oh well, just wanted to vent. Waiting for the hours to go by so I can go home and relax and go to bed early...and caffeine isn't helping...ugh. OK, really done now. Just needed to vent.

has it ever happen before your blacking out spell, carefull driving home,

Yeah, it's happened about 5-6 times in the past 6-7 years. The frustrating part is that it hasn't happened for over 2 years before yesterday! And they can't find out why it's happening...Yesterday my DH picked me up from work. I just feel tired that day and usually am fine the next day, but I guess I slept too much yesterday and I woke up early today so that's making me sleepy. Or I'm just getting older and I can't bounce back as fast!

But thanks, I'll be careful driving home...I can usually tell when one's going to come on so I have been careful to be sitting down and not moving when I feel off. So far, so good. Haven't hurt myself or anyone else, and I've always been at work or home, never driving (knock on wood). If I was driving I'd have to pull over anyway because I feel so disoriented.

I've been to the doctor many times about this and they can't find anything that could be causing it! I've even been picked up by an ambulance and taken to the ER, and nothing. Nothing in the blood work, nothing on the EKGs, nothing from the EEG...

They've checked my thyroid, my iron, my sugar/insulin levels, my heart, for seizures...everything checks out normal every time.

Sorry, just so frustrated. There's not much more they can test for...even my doctor says that. I guess I just have to chalk it up to a sudden drop in blood pressure that quickly comes back up to normal...and no reason found for that sudden drop.
