Possible vision problems from c2 bone spurs

Having bone spurs at c2 i was wondering if i could have vision problems. When i go stand up from sitting sometimes my vision fades and starts going black like im about to faint but i dont. Ive had this problem for like 3 years and since my arm starting to hurt i didnt think about it being related so could it. Thnx all

Jomar, you sure you don't have a medical degree? I think you are right on as what Logan17 is describing IS the definition of orthostatic hypotension. My only concern is that a common cause is "old age" (I understand she is not old) and ones (vascular, neurologic, endocrine) inability to accommodate to a drop in BP when one goes from laying/sitting to standing. Geriatrics have this commonly. Blood volume loss however is another reason which can of course be independent from age and is due to a number of reasons. She really needs to spend time with medical work-up!

Nope no medical degree, just had to learn some things for family and they seem to stick in my head...

Thnx jomar it seems i have alot of old people syndromes when im so young lol and im a guy as well lol
