Hello,
Thanks for your query.

I appreciate your efforts for medical consultation in so much distress.

I need following information to help you better:
-Type of test performed and their results
-EEG and and brain imaging findings if had been done
-If this problem started after some stress-or
-Is this fainting episode is associated with tongue bite, injury due to fall, production of loud voices or passage of urine or feaces during spell
-Duration and frequency of fainting spells
-Psychological testing report

Although diazepam and clonafit is helpful in anxiety but do not continue them for long duration because of addiction potential of these medicines.

waiting for your reply,

Regards,
