Does Pinched Sciatic Nerve Syndrome Cause Vasovagle Syncope?
I have near vasovagle syncope. Could there be a connection between the syncope and my pinched sciatic nerve that is causing pain when I walk. Age 63, 116 lbs., 5 4 . I was recently put on blood pressure meds. Outside of that, no other health problems. I had a cat scan, 2 blood workups, wore a cardic monitor for nine days and even with the near fainting recorded, my heart was fine, so was the cat scan and blood work.

You are having postural hypotension.
Becouse of medicines for blood peessure.
I do not think it is vasovagal syncope as it is having no relation with sciatica nerve.
So better to consult a doctor take telmisartan as bp meds.
So dont worry. Hope my suggestions helpful and thankful to you. Take care. Don't forget to give ratings.
