[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is she tall and thin? Both me and my sister had dizziness and fainting when we were younger and skinnier (like 5'7" and 105-115). We always had low blood pressure at check ups (but no one was worried about the dizziness). I haven't had anything like that post kids. I also weigh a good 25 pounds more. It's embarrassing but if she feels that way again she needs to lie down on the floor and get her legs elevated if she can. Head injury from fainting is the biggest worry.[/quote] That's POTS, and it's not uncommon in young skinny girls. But an episode while seated sounds like a possible cardiac issue to me. [/quote]
