Oh Lucy, how is Issy today?

As the others have already said, I'd most definitely ring your consultant with the details. Keep a diary of all events and arrange to go back and see him/her.

It could well be hormone related, or if she wasn't well hydrated and doing a lot of sport. Did she have enough to eat also yesterday? It could be 'something and nothing' but it's far better to go and get checked out and it be nothing, rather than something getting worse. Did they do her bloods last time you saw the consultant?

Also, has Issy herself noticed any changes or anything happening since February when she had the last episode?

I know it'd be daft of me to say don't worry, because I know you will be worried being such a lovely mum. If there's anything I can do to help, always here, please just ask.

Big {hug} {hug} for you and Issy {hug}

I've written to the consultant to tell him about her latest 'funny turn' but haven't heard back yet.
The more I think about it, the more I'm convinced she just fainted. She doesn't seem any more vague than usual )grin2(

Do you think maybe the netball leaders panicked a bit and it was a faint then?

I'd definitely go with your instinct - in my experience, Mums just know when something is wrong or not )t'
