Senator John Fetterman, who survived a stroke last May, was hospitalized Wednesday after he began feeling lightheaded, according to a statement from his office
, lightheadedness can have a wide variety of causes, ranging from low blood sugar, low blood pressure, or dehydration to heart attack and stroke.
Dr. Kevin Sheth, the founding chief of the Division of Neurocritical Care and Emergency Neurology at the Yale School of Medicine says that lightheadedness alone is not necessarily cause for concern and could be linked to chronic cardiac issues that do not pose an immediate threat to a patient’s life or ability to function.
According to Mitchell Elkind, the American Heart Association’s chief clinical science officer, new lightheadedness is not likely to be a result of Fetterman’s previous stroke. “As a physician caring for stroke patients, it’s not a particularly worrying sign,” Elkind says. “Lightheadedness is one of the most common reasons people are seen in emergency rooms and hospitals.”
Elkind says the tests and evaluations in the hospital may take some days to return results. But “lots of people have lightheadedness and no significant cause is found,” he says, “and they go about their normal daily lives afterwards.”
