From what I can determine from your post is that it seems your Doc wants to find out what is the cause of your fainting. I would surmize that he wants to find out if your having arrhythmia problems causing it or epilepsy or even possibly something neurologicly. It certainly sounds like you have the classic symptoms of VVS. Let us know how you make out.

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.
