Your Diagnosis

How is fainting diagnosed?
It’s important that everyone with syncope see a doctor and find out why they are fainting. To arrive at a diagnosis, your healthcare team will need information. Remember to share the results of a Fainting Quiz, provide your Fainting History, and bring along a Conversation Guide.

Sometimes, fainting is related to a heart condition. There are many tests that can help your healthcare team determine if your heart is causing the fainting.
