What Causes Recurring Bouts Of Fainting With Elevated Pulse Rate?

So I constantly faint and when I do its because my heart rate is between 150-175 and drops to 60-80 after a few minutes of passing out whenever I go to the hospital I m diagnosed with dehydration but I drank a gallon of water in less than 3 hours and went to the bathroom 4 times within the next hour each time feeling like I had never urinated more in my life and it was clear so I am trying to figure out what is wrong

Hello,

- urine microscopy
- carotid doppler

- urine 24 hour volume , sodium levels
