Hello and please, don't get up. I have been experiencing vaso vago syncope since age 35 when I had 3 massive heart attacks and open heart. Since then they have gotten extreme. I can not drive, operate my riding lawn mower, bass boat or any other machinery that requires a conscience operator. After 18 months of thourogh test via Cleveland Clinic the diagnosis is vaso vago syncope....DUH but of course the same old, gee we never saw this before answers. Now 43 I am looking for any, I mean any relief. I choke, pass out and occassionally have seizures. Beer, food, soft drinks, laughter, or just for no apparent reason I choke, pass out and have seizures. Am I nuts. Respectfully, one of you.
