There is a test called the tilt table test. If I were you, I would really talk to your doctor about your symptoms and episodes before even considering this test. Don't get me wrong, if you do have this disorder, finding an answer is wonderful. However, the test is rough on a person. It is a very emotionally draining process and I wish you the best of luck in finding a diagnosis.

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.
