What Causes Momentary Unconsciousness?

Today i suffered un-explained bout of momentary unconsiousness. While coming back from a walk with my child, i lost consiousness and fell in the lift. I regained unconsiousness. few seconds later as the lift door was still open. I used to have similar very rare episodes when i was in school , that is around 18-20 yrs ago. At that time it was attributed to cerivical/spondylitis i gave up using pillow at night and doing neck exercise and i did not have that again, since today.

Hello,

I have noted your symptoms. Based on that, we need to exclude epilepsy (seizure disorder). An EEG and brain MRI would be helpful in confirming the diagnosis. You can get better with anti-epileptic drugs.

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

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Sudhir Kumar
