Fainting Spells

2017-12-15 03:25:27
My boyfriend has been getting regular fainting spells for the past couple months, and his doctor has been writing it off as nothing concerning. About 2 months ago he started taking Lexapro & thats when he started fainting. He fainted every day for a week, so he stopped taking the pills. He hasn't taken them since & hasn't passed out but today out of the blue he fainted 3 times. What could be causing this??
