Hi there

To be honest it could be a number of things. I would recommend that you make an appointment to see your GP to be on the safe side.

Hi there Tishie,

I have experienced similar feelings, but I agree totally with Bluemermaid that you should seek your doctor's advice on this as it could be one of several things and you need to get a proper diagnosis.

Yes I get this from taking Pregabalin. Are you on any medications?xx

Have you started taking any new medication? It's surprising how a new painkiller can make you feel faint. Is it after doing a particular activity? It could be just low blood pressure. I have this and often feel weak/faint if I stand for too long or get up too quickly.

Hope you get sorted. To be honest, if you can't pinpoint it down to new meds, I'd go straight to the docs.
