    Very interesting. I’ve had a a number of blackouts over the last 8 yrs. I’ve had cardio tests, ecg, mri, lumber puncture and the tests resulting in tachycardia, palpitations. No neurological problems, so specific seizures were ruled out although I was not allowed to drive for a year. However I’ve had more blackouts the last month and cannot drive or fly again, I’ve had another Holter monitor, ecg, echocardiogram. I am now on beta blockers. Fortunately my blackouts have happened whilst sitting. It’s all very confusing but your explanation of Syncope was very clear and understandable, thank you.

    Wow...I look at your videos and I hear some really golden facts I read in huge books like Harrison and had forgotten. Facts really important for diagnosis but usually missed. Keep up the good work!
