So I started having migraines about 3 years agoand then over a year ago I started having blackouts when I was driving or sitting in front of a computer for more then an hour or so. I've had every test done that the neurologist and cardiologist can think of to do. It all comes back normal. But it's still happening and no one can tell me why. Does anyone have any suggestions. Because at this point of been off work this time for 4 months after going back to work for 3 monthsbecause after 9 months of tests they thought it was sleep apnea. But I have a sleep machine now so obviously not that. I'm just so frustrated, please help

    Good morning, I feel your pain!  I have been blacking out when standing or sitting at a computer I was advised at the onset not to drive.  I also suffer excruciating headaches, blurry vision, tremors amongst other issues.  I have been diagnosed with low blood pressure and orthostatic intolerance after a tilt table test which made me pass out.  Have you had a tilt table test?  I am now on vast amounts of medications but still blackout on minimum once a week but sometimes twice a day.  I also had a blood pressure monitor for 24 hours, have you had the tilt table and blood pressure monitor?
