A member asked:
Can an episode of near syncope enough to effect my drivers license?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Talk to your doctor : A single episode of near syncope may not adversely affect your driving privilege. If an understanding of the cause and remedy has been determined, you should be able to drive. On the other hand, if the cause of your near syncope has not been determined or if the symptoms persist, you should not drive. You should discuss this with your doctor. You are asking an important question.
