A member asked:

First time passed out having a blood test still feeling dizzy but also feeling sick and got headache. also lost appetite the past few days and want sleep all the time. what could be causing this?

Need evaluation: Without further info/knowledge of health history, it's not possible to give individual diagnosis in this forum. General info: Fainting when getting blood drawn can be a "vasovagal" response: Blood pressure drops suddenly during emotional/physical stress.Headache/sleepiness can occur after.Although not usually a sign of serious illness if no health problems,deserves opinion from doc who knows you.
