VDS still is not well understood but better than when I was first diagnosed.
I have never passed out and heart stop beating except on the tilt table ...sleep apnea issues aside. I will never forget that moment. I was for sure that table was going to do nothing to me. Then I started sweating, got sick to my stomach and the next thing you know I was laying flat on my back after I had flatlined. I guess I technically flatlined. Can’t remember if that is exactly right.
Here is what I have noticed..which could be the result of anything
wearing a mask and sudden movement (like bending over at the waist and raising up) can make me feel light headed in the heat..even in air conditioned store..and I have even slightly stumbled.
but that could be from any number of factors

Syncopy from sudden movement, especially bending over to standing could be from hypotension, low blood sugar, low potassium...most likely a combination of the latter two.
Don’t go shopping while hungry...hard on the body and harder on the budget.
