Hi Bob, I have told my Dr. about them and she said that it is the BP. she took mine one time and said that is not you problem though, and kissed it off. I have had all the tests for my heart and everything. The last time I went out was in the car it scared me so bad. I can tell when I am in the area of this happening , so I take my own blood pressure and if it is real low I do not drive. It is very hard to get the Dr. to hear what you are saying. I lasts just for a second like every one is saying. It happens when there is a lot of stress good or bad, and have been very busy. I just learn to lessen to by body and what it is telling me.
