A member asked:
Why do i keep feeling dizzy and lightheaded?..no palpitations i feel dropping sensation in body and feel like body feels like it seizes and like i'm holding my breath at times?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Transient "lightheadedness" other than from alcohol or certain medications, can represent cardiac rhythm irregularities, such as "atrial fibrillation" or momentary "ventricular tachycardia", and be difficult to detect in the form of "palpitations", especially if "lightheadedness" at the time. Get a referral to a cardiologist for monitoring (Holter counter) to determine the cause.
