My friend has been feeling like she was ready to faint for the last 11hrs and said that it has been happening on and off for months, what should we do
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See a physician: There are many reasons as to why a young person might experience lightheadedness, which depend on the circumstances during which the symptoms occur; i.e with sudden changes in position (orthostasis), palpitations (arrhythmias), dehydration, pain and others. Given your friend's symptoms have been ongoing for a while I suggest seeing a physician for evaluation. In the meantime, keep well hydrated.
