It sounds like a vagal response caused by the dysreflexia. Now- what is causing the dysreflexia? It sounds like it could be the bowel and or bladder, they can actually fight each other, if they are both full (from personal experience) they tend to fight each other for the right of way.... so to speak. Have your blood pressure taken when this happens; if you have a high or super low blood pressure, it just may be a vagal response. Tim c5-c6, 19 yrs. post
