Fainting now?!

[Sam-28]

Hi guys has anyone every fainted when having a really bad flare up? I have fainted twice today and just back from the gp to be told it's maybe a virus 😩

Me again! Yes, I haven't for a while but my bp always used to drop, I'd go hot and then I'd pass out. When I went into A&E by ambulance, I had fainted and they were unable to give me morphine because my bp was too low. I suppose it is your body's response to pain? I was worse when I was younger. I found endo pain at times worse than labour.

I am a regular fainter and have been since I was 18. I never linked it to endo but then I've only recently been diagnosed at 38. Have definitely fainted with pain, and I also suspect being persistently anaemic may have also had an impact. I could never get it taken seriously - was always just told it was due to low BP and isn't dangerous unless you hurt yourself when you fall (which I have done on occasion).
