Hi everyone
i have just recently joined this group, after being told by my
physician that i have the above condition or vasovagal syncopy.  What i
don't understand is he points out that the problem is down the signals
from a chamber within my heart.  but i have read that the problem lies
in the legs and the cells becoming dilated can someone help me with
this problem as i know very little about it and would appreciate any
advice or facts about the condition.  i am currently awaiting a
pacemaker implant.

thanks

Talk to your doctor about a trial of medicatilon first.  Zoloft has
shown value (in relatively small doses) in the treatment of
neurally-mediated cardiogenic syncope.  You could get lucky and avoid
a pacemaker.

Best,

Bob
