What Is Sick Sinus Syndrome?
8. Lightheadedness
Our brain is a powerful organ and, as such, it requires a lot of fuel. This means lots of fresh blood delivering nutrients and oxygen but, when somebody has sick sinus syndrome, this supply of oxygen can become limited. This will mean that the brain will not have the oxygen it needs to operate at full capacity.
Without enough oxygen, our brain will begin slowing down and this can cause us to become lightheaded. Some people might also find that they faint altogether. There are numerous factors that can cause this and you should get it checked out if the symptom persists.
