Good Morning. I Am A Female Age 57. I Am

Posted on Tue, 10 Mar 2020
Question: Good morning. I am a female age 57. I am 5' 6" tall and weight 133 lbs. I am in excellent health and do not take any medications. I started going through menopause in 2011 when I was 48. The only other health issues that I can think of was I had toxoplamosis when I was a teenager and in 2016 I had CDIFF. I have been having - I don't know what to call them - "flashbacks"?? When I read something, remember something or see something on TV it causes me to feel like I am going to pass out or at least need to sit down for a while. After it is over with, I cannot tell you what caused it. I don't remember. Have you heard of something like this with menopause? My last pap smear was clear.

Can be related to stress , anxiety or emotional issue.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor's service.
I read your query and here is my advice.

I don't think this can be related to a health issue or brain issue. I can't even relate it to menopause.
I think this can be related to emotional issues.
Possibly you have been a bit stressed or anxious lately and different situations you see or listen can make you overthink and loose a bit relation to the environment around you.
I believe it can just be stress or emotional issue.

Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
