Anyone have Vagus nerve problems causing strange, unnerving symptoms?
Heart & Blood Health | Last Active: Jul 19 4:49pm | Replies (34)Comment receiving replies
For the past 10 yrs my heart rate has been fluctuating from 185/110 to 70/55 with a lot of dizziness and have passed out 7 times. From my research I found that the vagus nerve basically sends signals to the brain which tells the heart to regulate blood flow. Have been to numerous cardiologists and neuroscientists who have not given me an answer for passing out and dizziness after doing all their tests. I mention the vagus nerve to the cardiologist in Florida after passing out and winding up in the hospital again and basically tell me it is not the Vargas nerve causing the passing out episodes, which I still think it is. I am frustrated after all these years with no answers .

I once had an attack and the doctor told me it was the vagus nerve. He said the remedy is to lie down flat with the feet elevated and to do that if I felt another one coming on. Do you feel the attacks coming on, with sweats or funny feelings?
You can also Google Vagus Nerve and find many exercises to "reset" the Vagus nerve in addition to many books on the subject. A Functional Medical Practitioner might be more helpful if you can find one.
