[@3puppitos]

Thank you for this video. It is very hard to find help for hypotension. My regular bp is 86/65 and the doctors told me there is no medication they can give me so I'm struggling to find help.

[@backgroundmusik]

Every year in marching band we had someone pass out from locking their knees for too long. We were on soft grass so there was more embarrassment than injury. This reminds me of the methods pilots who don't wear g-suits use.

Thank u dears!

[@anneliereimers]

Good video with good explanation!🤗. This helps me a little when I feel dizzy and feels like fainting. But I never faint. Instead I feel sick, begins to cold sweat and then get a cramping seizure in the head, similiar to an epileptic seizure. But I dont have epilepsi. This goes very quickly and I dont have time to do any excersise in this state. I also have high blodpressure instead of low. I have been diagnosed with POTS. Do you have any tips for this matter? Thank you un advance.

[@ArrhythmiaAlliance]

[@JohnAnderson-ef5hz]

Thank you both very much. While I drop to squat when prompted I was thinking to reduce the height of any fall. I see there are other reasons

[@ArrhythmiaAlliance]

[@sujathavk4814]

Thank you doctor!

[@savandarm]

We wonder how long we have to squat to normalize BP pressure ... Would sitting in a low foot-stool do the same effect ???

Thank you!

[@bryanphillips7252]

The squatting idea is interesting but maybe it is different if you're exercising or doing the movement repeatedly, we do a lot of bodyweight squats and burpees at Karate class and it is usually after these that I start to feel faint. The sensation usually only lasts for what is probably a few seconds but it is quite uncomfortable and a little bit scary (even as an adult who kind of understands what's happening). I might try staying in the squat position for a few seconds at the end of the set and see if that makes a difference; here's hoping... I've tried the other more common approaches like sitting with my head between my knees or leaning forward from the hips to get my head closer to the level of my heart but the effect isn't immediate and it still takes longer than I would like to feel o.k. again. Oddly enough, once the first episode has passed I can make it the rest of the class without a problem - maybe it just takes my system a little while to change from rest to active mode? Maybe...

[@eliasescoto8639]

There is study that was conducted related to this and the result was: if you keep moving you will not faint. www.syncopedia.org/post-exercise-vasovagal-syncope/ Hopefully helps

[@adrianarizo5618]

I'm 44 years old. My BP was 107 systolic

[@AlabamaWorley718]

My blood pressure has been getting lower. It was 99/63 the other day. I feel dizzy and almost black out. What causes this?

[@ArrhythmiaAlliance]

I am sorry to hear about your recent experiences, have you contacted your Doctor? it is important not to ignore such symptoms. Please visit the STARS webpage, download and complete the 'Blackouts Checklist from the Patients Tab before making an appointment? heartrhythmalliance.org/stars/uk

[@sarahm2878]

I do all these things but I still faint. I had an episode while laying down. All I did was change positions and roll onto my side.

[@cristinalee6606]

Mine happens when I drive could it be when i sit in a car position

[@dhruvitop]

Sir when I breath deeply In my brain blood goes in and it faint me little while What is symptoms about . I travelled over India but I didn't get my answer. Pls reply me what should I do

[@christodavis3334]

Hyperventilation leads to dizziness..its a normal thing..while doing deep breaths do slowly..so that you don't hyperventilate..

[@terencecrouch8768]

Takes me

[@KrisHughes]

The question is ... am I fit enough to squat!

[@angelopapolis8675]

Just go to the gym and build up muscle tissue and decrease fat tissue Muscles will keep everything tight
