There are different reasons for the fainting (syncopal) episodes. The treatment depends on the cause. But any case of Syncopy needs these tests: EKG, ECHOCARDIOGRAM, Carotid Doppler, EEG, CT Brain. These are in addition to the basic lab tests CBC, BMP, CR, Liver function tests. You can post the results if you have. Then we can formulate the diagnosis and then discuss treatment options.
Regards,
Dr. Jagdish
