update!

I made today’s appointment despite the chronic fatigue. My wife drove. We were late due to the new speed limits here in Wales but that’s another story. I have to have my first endoscopy for two years before my next appointment in three months. I’d been having six monthly check ups but there is some concern about weight, dizziness and blackouts. The last blackout only lasted a short time but I really hurt my back falling. I had very bad back pain for nearly three months afterwards.

This is something that your own health care professional is best placed to answer and we suggest contacting them in the first instance.

Whilst passing out may not be serious, it’s important to get checked by a GP to find out what might have caused it.

Best wishes
