What Causes Frequent Passing Out After Being Diagnosed With Abnormal Brain Activity?
My boyfriend in the past year has been passing out followed by nausea and severe headaches. Him passing out started every 2 Months and now it is happening every 2 weeks . Today he did it again and I ran him to ER and they did a ultra sound of his heart . He had a cat scan of his head and they said he has abnormal brain activity. Just trying to find out why he passes out and why they are getting more frequent.

ello. I have been through your question and understand your concern.
Since CT scan and cardiac ultrasound are with no organic problems, you should proceed with electric studies to see if there is a seizure causing these episodes.
I recommend electroencephalogram.
