What Causes Sudden Fainting After Eating Antacid In An Elderly Person?
Last knight I fell down suddenly just after I consumed a spoon of antacid liquid more so on the right side upper hip .I ha d no pain I was put to the bed rest and slept. In the morning I went for half an hour walk. I had bath and break fast. I am 81 yrs I am a cancer survivor for last 16 yrs. last year I had an open heart surgery due to the blockage of three arteries.I am having now mild pain and one swelling in the upper hip area I want your advice .
Antacid Is not responsible for your fainting. You underwent 3 vessel block heart surgery, maybe ischemia or Postural hypotension may be the cause. Then you said mild pain right side hip pain -may be renal or ureteric calculi. Better do ECG/ECHO/US abdomen KUB.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
