What Could Be The Cause For Frequent Blackout Episodes?

Hi I have a few concerns i have had a bunch of ekgs done and some are normal and others are borderline with long qt intervals and I am not concerned. I did see a cardiologist who doesn’t think it’s long qt syndrome. I guess I am unclear about the whole thing like is it normal to have that every now and then I don’t understand. I have had episodes where I would blackout meaning everything would go black

Hello,

Consult a neurologist and get evaluated.
We have to rule out possible causes like TIA (transient ischemic attacks).
An MRI brain may be useful.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
