A member asked:
I'm 16 and have no history of neurological problems but overtime i have had 2 seizures from i think is orthostatic hypotension. should i be concerned?

Don't diagnose self: You should not diagnose yourself. Are you certain you have had a seizure? Or did you just faint? Orthostatic hypotension can cause fainting, but it does not cause seizures. It will help for you to visit a doctor in person to describe what happened, and allow them to recommend testing or not to help you prevent these events in the future.

I was told that I have Orthostatic Hypotension. My question is why does lightheadedness and dizziness only effect me at times but not all the time when standing. I also have problems with my ears feeling full. Could this be part of the problem too?
