My gf has a condtion that she is seeing a doctor about, but she isn't due back for 3 weeks. What hapens is either she will feel very sick, and feel like she is going to puke, has back and stomach pain and that lasts a day. What do I do when she gets like that? nothing seems to help her, Any ideas on what I could try? The other thing is that she will pass out like daily. It is w/ no warning. She is normally out cold for 5-20 minutes. She wakes up scared, tired, and dizzy, and w/ a headach. How can I comfort her? is there any way to bring her out faster? Or is that a danger to try? I need adivce as her parents r going away for 3 weeks starting tomarrow and she is staying with me for that 3 weeks. Please give me any advice you have!

Her parents r leaving bcuz of bussines.
And she has seen a specialist about this, she isn't do back for 3 weeks, and I know I shouldn't seek medical advice online, but I know there are some people on here who can advise me on what to do up until her appt. with the specialist.

Bill, this could be so many different things I don't know where to start. My advice is not to take any medical advice you would get from an online Q&A service. Follow only the guidance given to her by a licensed physician who has examined her.
By the way...why are her parents leaving for three weeks if she is sick???

Abdominal and back pain could be related to a digestive disorder. But there are plenty of vital organs in that area and any one could be diseased.
Losing consciousness can come from so many different things. Low blood pressure, transient ischemic attacks; even some forms of epilepsy manifest without convulsions, only loss of consciousness.
Your girlfriend needs a full medical workup done to begin tracking her problems.

my guess is kidney or liver disease
in any case, a simple, nutritious diet and enough water would be good. Probably nothing very strong, chilli peppers, spices.
I wonder if it could be appendicitis? Although a doctor should have known if it was.
Make sure you are familiar with the "recovery position" to put her in if she passes out. This is to stop her swallowing her tongue.

Could be Kidney Disease. Very serious condition. Her sugar level sounds off also, that could cause her to suddenly conk out, may be signs of diabetes. Get her to the Doctor soon.

The passing out thing has me very concerned; if she were someone who I cared about, I would get her to the ER ASAP and tell the Doc what you have stated here. Maybe you could print you question and hand it to him. Good luck!

1) She souled not take any Alcoholic Drinks.
2) Her blood RBC or WBC may be more or less than normal.
Would be better to refer to a Blood Specialist Physician.
Good Health.

I'm not sure, but the passing out does not sound good. I'd call an ambulance or something when that happens! Good luck!
