Fainted shaking legs

2017-09-23 12:41:44
My mum fainted (or Atleast s that's what I think happened) she was lying on the ground with her legs shaking and when we tried to get her up she wasn't seeming like herself. She would repeat answers and ask questions more than once. Previously to the fall, I think she witnessed a heated argument between fellow family members and i don't know whether she fell because her blood pressure went low? Or whether because she was traumatised. Please help.

Take immediate medical opinion to rule out the possible causes. If understanding and speech is affected neurological consultation is needed. Also get her evaluated for cholesterol and possibility of clot formation.
Health Tips
Follow medical advice further which plan stress management consultation for her.
