What Is The Cause And Remedy Of Being Unconscious While Laughing ?
when I laugh I can feel myself losing consciousness, and have to stop myself from laughing before I black out. It s almost as if there s sudden rush of blood to my head. My blood pressure is in normal range. I ve put on quite a bit of weight recently and wonder if that has something to do with it.

Hi there,
Losing consciousness while laughing might be related to possible:
- brain problems
- blood vessels problems.
I suggest to consult with a neurologist and to run further neurological examinations to rule out brain problems.
If everything is ok, then, should conduct cardiac tests to rule out blood vessels/cardiac problems.
Measuring your blood lipid levels is also highly recommended to prevent future problems.
Please try to lose weight and to be more physically active!
