A member asked:
I experience near fainting spells numerous times a day, every day, for over a month now. family doctor said tests are normal. i dont get spinning, i just get a rush and weakness like im going to passout. could anxiety cause symptoms that extreme?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
anxiety: Have you been worked up for POTS and other conditions. I doubt it is anxiety until you are experiencing panic attacks multiple times per day. Would only attribute it to psychiatric cause if all pertinent medical causes were ruled out.
