Your condition is not fatal as long as you learn to adjust your life style. In effect, just never put yourself in harms way by going swimming, sky diving etc. My Specialist is an expert regarding vaso vagal and assured me one should not worry so much about their condition. He did stress to me that over an extended period of time one begins to recognize possible triggers and you automatically educate yourself in this manner so as to make the condition easier to live with. He said side effects of medications (beta blockers) can be worst than the condition itself and did not recommend me taking medication 5 years ago after finding I had vaso vagal.

This web site is not a substitute for a thorough medical evaluation and diagnosis of your vaso-vagal type symptoms.  Medical treatment and diagnosis is the only acceptable initial response to these serious symptoms since they might present from any number of life threatening and treatable illnesses. It is for you and your physician to rule out more serious illnesses; Please don't use this online forum as an alternative to getting responsible medical attention and being under the care of a physician for the duration of any unknown, suspected or dangerous vaso-vagal syndrome symptoms.
