Ok heres the thing i have been with my
boyfriend for 20 months now things are
great but i have some worries but he says
its typical for all men.. after
intercourse he well passes out sometimes
or parts of his body goes numb or in the
past his heart actually stopped or he
blacked out i had to catch him.. I'm
scared but he always just doesnt want to
talk about it.. He always gets blinding
headaches sometimes after and well loses
all desire to be touched.. Is that normal
cause honestly it doesnt to me.. Has
anyone else gone through this or can
anyone give me some advice on how to
approach him on my worries..

You're right, it's not normal. Generally
men may feel drowsy after having sex and
are more likely to fall asleep before
women but this has nothing to do with
going numb, blacking out or your heart
stopping.

i didnt think it was normal and its
happend more then once also... i'm just
not sure what to do about it.. he wont go
see a dr about it and doesnt really want
to talk about it with me.. maybe hes
hiding a condition he already knows about?

wow, this definately needs to be checked
out by a doctor! i'm not sure what kind of
condition he could be hiding from you, but
why would he do that? you've been together
long enough that he shouldn't feel
embarrassed about discussing it with you.
and he certainly shouldn't be hiding
things from you.

I agree he needs to see the dr maybe ask
atleast.. I dont know though it hasnt
happend in awhile which is a relief. Well
we dont always talk about everything i
dont think hes hiding i just dont think he
likes talking about medical stuff i worry
to much and he knows it.. Next time it
does happen i am going to have a firm talk
to him about it i dont like it it scares
me i love him to much to lose him.

Seriously? Tell him you won't have sex
with him until he gets it checked out.
That's dangerous.

Yea seriously.. its weird.... i might have
to do that though lately we havent been
doing much his schedule is insane because
of all the holidays and everything.. they
got new accounts so hes working.. Last
saturday was the first time i got to see
him in like 3 weeks.. I know its
dangerous.. thats why if it does happen
again i/m going to make sure he sees a dr.
it scares me.. Like i said it hasnt
happend in along time so maybe he has
talked to a dr... i mentioned it alot
before so he might just have gone..

Does he have high blood pressure and/or
unhealthy blood sugar levels. Either of
these would be the most likely culprit.
Another cause could be a heart murmur or
irregular heartbeat. Inappropriate blood
sugar levels can also cause irregular
heartbeat and a "fluttering" feeling of
the heart.
One time, at school, I had not eaten
anything all day and had not slept either,
I drank a Mountain Dew which has a good
amount of caffeine and sugar, which caused
me to feel my heart kind of "flutter", or
beat very irregularly and sometimes skip
beats. I started tingling and going numb,
so I went for a walk and it eventually
went away.
My point is that any of those
conditions are quite serious, and if they
are recurring, they need medical
attention. He should get a physical and a
blood test, and he should tell the doctor
what the problem is.

No he had a blood test and everything done
i think last month everything is ok.. I
know when he was younger he mentioned he
got hit in the head with a rock it dented
his skull maybe it damaged more then they
thought? could that be a factor?

That doesn't seem like it would be the
only symptom.

he sounds like the sort of person who
mighgt bluff you and tell you 'the doctor
said it was fine'. go in to the doctor's
with him! let us know how it goes.

I am a neuro ICU RN. You need to tell your
bf to go to the doc and tell him/her
everything. A neurologist would be ideal.
This could be serious and may be life
threatening. Cerebral aneurysms can cause
many of those symptoms. He needs to get to
a doc and have a CT scan.
It could also be a vasovagal response to
orgasm. This is when a person bears down
and this causes pressure on the vegas
nerve which can cause someone to pass out.
Passing out is dangerous for obvious
reasons. Tell him to get to a doc.
