Alittle personal...

[Ruralquirks]

Hi there,

So I had a weird moment today at work, it's happened before, I was just wondering if anyone else gets this? I started to feel sick and like I needed to go to the loo, so I went, but then I started getting really sweaty and anxious? For the last hour and a half of my shift at work, I just felt really sick, my tummy hurt, anxious.. And when I got home I went to the loo and I feel alot better now I have, but this is quite personal.. It's difficult to explain, but sometimes when I go to the loo properly, it feels like the nerves in my bum hole are slightly different? Like they feel more sensitive and it feels really uncomfortable and strange? I'm not sure if that really makes sense but yeah...

Not strange at all look up Vasogal Syncope.

I get the shivers and sweats sometimes when I have a IBS d attack but no other sympton. If it really worries you chat to your GP🤔😉

Hi, I had a look at that, it came up with fainting?

I think what you are describing is the precursor to fainting. I get something similar but don't faint.

[Ruralquirks in reply to Maureen1958]

Yeah, I know my blood pressure is low. It is a weird sensation I must admit. I think it links in with my anxiety

[Linley in reply to Ruralquirks]

Not everyone faints, I am not a clinician but thought VS was worth looking up to assist you. It's your body over reacting to a trigger or situation, your GP can give you a proper diagnosis😊

Ah okay, that does make sense. Weirdly I did collapse at the doctors today so re booked my bloods for next week!
