inappropriate blood glucose control, be careful, “repeated syncope” upper body! Dr Chun-An Chen said that diabetes 5 to 10 years later, poor glycemic control, the products could lead to neuropathy, sympathetic to follow problems and always will feel dizzy and weak, and even loss of consciousness, serious impact on lifestyle.

diabetes Wang, a 15-year history, recently took place within three months, a dozen of loss of consciousness, 2 to 5 minutes each time before regained consciousness, according to the ECG and echocardiography were not abnormal, and later transferred to metabolism, was found to be abnormal sympathetic nerve, leading to “orthostatic hypotension” symptoms.

Chun-An Chen said that once the blood glucose control in patients with diabetes properly, easily lead to neuropathy, sympathetic will follow the problems, patients often feel dizzy, seriously, it's just like Mr. Wang, would faint at every turn and even the impact on lifestyle, while Mr Chan vasopressor treatment and health education advocacy, the symptoms had improved significantly.

in fact, not only the sympathetic nerve-related syncope and orthostatic hypotension, as well as the vagus nerve of syncope and orthostatic tachycardia syndrome. Chun-An Chen explained that the vagus nerve of syncope is a reflex, and refers to a time of emotional ups and downs too, increased sympathetic nervous moments, “like the blood is too intense and faint, that is vagal syncope.”

The orthostatic tachycardia syndrome is caused more by a bacterial infection, bacterial infection due to lower extremity, lower extremity sympathetic to weakened upper extremity sympathetic enhancement, accelerated heart rate and fainting. Chun-An Chen said, syncope caused by sympathetic fact, no health is OK, as long as proper rest and treatment can be restored.

Chun-An Chen said that due to myocardial infarction or fatal arrhythmia induced syncope compared, such as Taiwan's former “Minister of the Interior,” Liao Fengde is because of this sudden death, cardiac cause of syncope, some people may be sleeping so one can not afford to .
