I was recently on a plane and almost passed out could it be the cabin pressure? Or my meds?

When I flew recently as we took off I got all black in front of my eyes for quite a few minuetes and ithought I was going to pass out. It was very scarey... I was recently put on a blood pressure medicene - not for high blood pressure - but as a preventitive for migraines. In your opinion would this have happened even if I wasn't on these meds or do you think it was the meds? Thanks.

    Sounds like anxiety. Was it your first plane ride?

    Meds, the pressure is not that great to induce passing out.

    Source(s): I fly regularly.
