Hi Seashell,

I'm afraid I really know very little about this but I think you are quite right to be worried. I would certainly not want to be driving if I was passing out without warning.

I don't know what kind of follow up you have but your doctor definitely needs to know what's going on and I would put a call thorugh asking to be seen as soon as possible.

There are so many possible reasons why this may be going on.

Hi again,

I have just reread your introduction post. You mention seeing a neurologist at some stage. Do you still see that same person? That could be a very good idea to keep up with neuro appointments if you are having this type of symptom as some lupus patients do have quite a few neuro symptoms.

Also, have you ever had bloods done for APS (or Hughe's syndrome)? That can cause all sorts of symptoms but for most people is relatively easily treated once diagnosed.

Hi Shell,

wow, I'm really glad you got that appointment so fast.
It sounds like the neuro is being nice and thorough which is excellent.

That option 2 was why I was asking if you had had bloods done for APS.

keep us posted,
Katharine
