I have just been diagnosed with NMH. I have fainted since I was 4 years old along with Grand Mal Seizures. My faints would last up to 5 min with the seizures lasting the whole time. I was told I had epilepsy by my GP but was never diagnosed until now with NMH. I have very severe low blood pressure and have been put on a high salt diet along with having to take 3 - 5 salt tablets every day along with 3 litres of water.

It has made a little difference to my light headedness, but not much. However I have not fainted since.
