I went on my usual 6 mile walk on Monday and fainted twice in the middle of the street.I really scared my friend and she poured a bottle of water over me to bring me to.The sun was just realkly hot even though it was six in the evening.I also didnt eat so that might have played a little part in it.Has this ever happened to you?Did you go see a doctor?I am now thinking I should have because its not the first time it has happened.

You should go and see a doctor but if you didn't eat both times you went out and did a 6 mile walk in the heat then that is probably why over anything! Hope you do get it checked out though! x

Oh No!! I have never fainted before, and am sure it was very scary!! I hope you are ok now.... That was soo good / lucky that you were with a friend at the time and not by yourself!!

Oh I definitely think you should call the doctor. Let them run some tests to make sure everything is normal. Could be anything causing this to happen. Please take care of yourself. I haven't had this happen. I was knocked out twice in my life but never passed out.

Go see a doctor until you do you will have to worry and there may be nothing to worry about. So save yourself a few worry wrinkles and find out for sure.
