I've been having these sudden blackout episodes lately, and it's a bit worrying. Sometimes when I stand up too quickly, everything just goes dark for a few seconds. Just the other night, I got out of bed to use the bathroom and suddenly felt like I was going to vomit, then I blacked out and collapsed for a moment. Do you know why this might be happening or what I should do about it?

These symptoms could be indicative of orthostatic hypotension, where a sudden drop in blood pressure occurs when changing positions. To help manage this condition, you can try increasing your fluid and salt intake, wearing compression stockings, and slowly changing positions to allow your body to adjust. Additionally, your doctor may prescribe medications such as Fludrocortisone to help regulate your blood pressure. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for a proper evaluation and management plan.

I'm Sanjay, and I've been dealing with this small pin-point pain in my chest for the last two months. I saw a local doctor who suggested getting an ECG and blood tests. After the tests, he said my heart's fine and linked the pain to gastric issues. He prescribed Rablet D and Met XL. Could you have a look at my ECG and let me know if there's really no heart issue? I'm a non-smoker, non-drinker, weighing 59 kg, and I'm 158 cm tall. I've uploaded my ECG, blood test, and TMT 2D Echo reports. Can you help me figure this out?
As per your ECG report, there is no problem with your heart. The chest pain you are experiencing is likely due to gastric issues, as mentioned by your doctor. The medications prescribed to you are: - Rablet D (Dosage: 1 tablet before breakfast) - Met XL (Dosage: As prescribed by your doctor) Continue taking these medications as advised by your doctor. Additionally, you can try to avoid spicy and oily foods, eat smaller meals more frequently, and avoid lying down immediately after eating to help with your gastric symptoms. If the chest pain persists or worsens, please follow up with your doctor for further evaluation.
