There are a number: ...of causes of repeat fainting, but it requires an eval. by a doctor. Heart rhythm disturbances, low blood pressure, vasovagal syncope (which can occur from sudden anxiety or pain), pooling of blood in the legs from standing a long time, and difficulty maintaining sufficient circulating blood volume (POTS) are just a few. Please see your doctor about this. Best wishes. Dr. Anne.
