Passing out!
I am worried sick!My son keeps passing out. His heart is fine, his blood pressure was a little up, but fine when retested. Today my family were going to London, he just passed out AGAIN!!!
I am taking him back to the GP in an hour. This is the Third visit!!!! We are all puzzled as to what it can be.
Has this happened to any of you?

You have my sympathies. I hope you can get to the bottom of his problem.

I am wondering if it is the same as my hubby????
Pernicious anaemia is a condition caused by too little vitamin B12 in the body. It is one form of vitamin B12 deficiency anaemia. Vitamin B12 helps the body make healthy red blood cells and helps keep nerve cells healthy. ... The most common cause of pernicious anaemia is the loss of stomach cells that make intrinsic factor.

I would have thought they should have tested him for this if they know his father has it, as I believe is is often hereditary.
Maybe you'd best give them a reminder.

I will get his twin brother tested too. This might explain the other twin having constant mouth ulcers.

Yes. Best way, and like I said, don't be fobbed off.
You'd best get going hadn't you?
