Hello
This exactly what I experience, I have been having this for the past 4-5 years. I also have been told it is panic attacks, but I know it is not.

Are you still having your symptoms?
Thanks for your reply. A couple of points:
(1) I began getting presyncope 10 years ago, long before I was on any meds and the episodes have continued whether my bp was low, moderate or high.
(2) I have absolutely no warning signs before an episode - no palpatations, blurred vision,headaches or tingly sensations in body.
(3) I am certain these are not anxiety attacks as I experienced a few anxiety attacks 20 years ago and learned through behavioral methods not to have them again. An anxiety attack comes during moments of stress and the buildup is noticeable -- racing heart, faster breathing, tingling in extremities and the resolution is gradual too. What I am callin presyncope happens at times when I have no stress and there is no buildup and the resolution takes a few seconds.
its difficult to say as a guess, your doctor, your bloods would be tested first, ecgs and maybe a brain scan to rule out any abnormality, even an ear infection can be the root cause this may also be an anxiety attack
do you have any palpatations, blurred vision,headaches, tingly sensations in body, this also might be down to the meds you are on, if your bp has gone from high to lower then this can cause these symptoms, i hope you find the answer to problem
