Overview
Syncope itself is a symptom. Patients with syncope may feel balcking out, dizziness, lightheadedness, and temporary loss of consciousness. Patients may experience other symptoms based on the underlying causes of the syncope.
History and Symptoms
Syncope itself is a symptom. Patients with syncope may feel:[1][2][3]
- Blacking out
- Dizziness
- Grogginess, feeling unsteady or weak when standing, even falling
