Have you experienced unexplained falls or blackouts?

One reason for confusion is convulsive Syncope, which is when a loss of consciousness is accompanied by jerking of arms, legs and face, as well as other similar symptoms common to both Syncope and epilepsy. Misdiagnosis is common but avoidable.

You can help raise awareness about Syncope by downloading and sharing our poster;
