Syncope/lightheadedness

Syncope is a transient loss of consciousness generally secondary to a lack of blood flow to the brain. A condition described as near-syncope occurs when an individual may feel weak and dizzy but does not lose consciousness. There are multiple causes of this condition and one might also consider a cardiac ideology evaluation.
