Hi,

Based on the information provided, the loss of consciousness can not be explained by two small infarcts in the brain. EEG is required to rule out any subclinical seizures. CSF analysis should be done to rule out CNS infection. Metabolic derangements such low sodium or low sugar should also be excluded.

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

Regards,
Dr. Sudhir Kumar, Neurologist
