We have been to numerous drs. and she has had EKG s, head scan, blood work done at ER and doctor s office. Should she see a cardiologist or maybe an ENT dr. At wit s end knowing what she needs.

Hi ,
Thanks for asking. I understand your concern..
The recurrent fainting spells lasting for 10
minutes could be due to _
- low oxygen suply to brain like low blood pressure/ heart problems /lung conditions causing low oxygen levels in blood/brain problems like epilesy
*you need full investigations for heart or lung conditions apart from brain investigations you had.
