For the past few months I have had episodes of blacking out and passing out and getting very dizzy etc at random times. It can be when I am just sitting down or walking, anything. The past few weeks it has gotten really bad, like almost an every day thing.
I went to the doctor and got an EKG on my heart and everything was okay.
I am bulimic, which my doctor doesn't know, but I was wondering if maybe that was the cause. I am a healthy weight and everything but I know that being bulimic is really bad for your electrolytes, i'm not sure if this could be the cause.
I don't know what to do because I obviously don't want to tell anyone about this, but I don't know what else to do.
Any insight on what could be wrong? (link)

OK first off, I don't know if bulimia is the cause, but either way you need to tell your doctor, because if they aren't working with complete information, they can't give an accurate diagnosis. "Healthy weight" is nowhere near enough information, if you are throwing up your food, you aren't getting nutrients from it, and that is probably the cause.
I am a little worried about how unthorough your doctor was... I passed out twice in the span of a year, and my doctor ordered an EKG, an EEG, had a monitor strapped to me for a week while I was walking around, and a whole bunch of other tests, and my insurance isn't even all that good. If the cause hasn't been found, they need to keep looking.

Yeah I have gotten multiple EKG's and blood tests and MRI's and CAT scans and such, they have never found anything...its very frustrating.
I have a normal BMI if that helps.
Thank you for your feedback though.
