A member asked:

When things start moving fast in front of me or they start rotating at a very high speed, if i stare for some time.. i get a feeling that i'll faint?

Need Evaluation: You need to get checked for your feeling faint. You need a comprehensive neurological exam and may need eeg/mri, blood test to find the cause of your feeling like you will faint.
