Hey Tim,
A friend of mine was diagnosed with vasovagal syncabe. He dropped down to the ground because of allot of blood being rushed into his head during a stress test just after walking on a machine. After falling from a fainting spell of some kind, they kept him laying on the ground which sent the blood to his head. Take a look at the web site below from wikipedia. There are allot of different web sites on the subject. Take a look at it, do some research into this and see if it might relate to you? Bring it up to your Dr. Let us know, keep in touch with all of us! Take care, keep a smile on your face!

> I'm wondering if my uncontrolled epilepsy isn't because allot of my seizures may've really been fainting experiences, which are caused by reduced blood supply to the brain. Faints lasts a few seconds, falling over to where the head is at the same level as the heart and afterward the person is usually back up and back to normal without being post-ictal. Just after standing up, I've fallen forward I always think anything that make me fall without being conscience to be seizures. Now I think many were faints and that may be why medicines for the seizures neverÂ

I feel it simply bending down to tie my shoes! In the following seconds after getting back up I feel a little woozy, but quickly goes away. Might it be that's a trigger for a seizure for you? It wasn't for me, but this past year I'm noticing changes in me now that I'm 52 years young. Bending my head low to tie my shoes on the ground really gets me for some reason? Take care, keep a smile on your face!
