[QUOTE="helpangel, post: 617501, member: 7170"] I'm not sure what causes those type "episodes" but I've had them my entire life though not as often or severe as when I was a child or during pregnancy. During pregnancy would happen all the time walking down hallway when hadn't eaten anything that day yet, not sure if it was no food or light that flickered at end of that hallway or both. Plaid type carpet with clashing stripes on the wall in that hallway that would bring me to my knees daily also. As a kid learned to avoid strobe lights or dancing lights (car lots, snack bar at movies etc.) Still avoid tunnels at all costs when driving. I noticed often the fear of injury when passing out would throw me into a whopper of a panic attack so when I feel one coming on I immediately will go to the floor and sit with head down and eyes closed until it passed, and a glass of juice would help recovery time after an episode. Going down more controlled beats losing 20 minutes of day and whatever I hit head on or broke on my way down, out cold. Wish I could be more helpful but none of the doctors I've seen could pinpoint the problem; I think of them as kind of a sugar/light combo related seizure. Nancy [/QUOTE]
