I had been suffering most of the symptoms that you mentioned for quite some time but just carried on and ignored them , apart from taking meds for high blood pressure. Until I passed out while driving and ended up in hospital for 15 days , diagnosed with Trifascicular block and non compaction. , I was 54 and given a dual lead pacemaker. It seems strange that they want you to actually black out which seems extreme and dangerous. Is it possible to get a second opinion ?

Thanks for sharing your story .I am also worried about blacking out while driving,but the NHS has told me I am ok to drive! But if I blackout they will fit one,this is ridiculous, going to the GP to get a second opinion.Thanks again.
