Actually I am concerned with this event. It is represented to us as "tussive syncope," i.e., fainting on a cough. I don't like the sounds of it. He is quite young for this to happen. It is often in the differential diagnosis of a first seizure and sometimes is the presenting feature of an underlying disease of heart or lungs. His face looks like somebody slugged him. He fell off a couch?...what onto?...a brick floor? As a neurologist seeing him with this history at this age I would be sure he was getting a workup to include EEG, 48 hour Holter monitoring for cardiac dysrhythmia, MR of brain for structual disease at a minimum. Talk about an unanticipated event! And he doesn't even have a cough! On a pretzel? This is something the average guy on the streets doesn't have a clue about...and Wall Street barely noticed...dumbass F***HEADS! This to my mind is much more cause for concern than perhaps a little MI which could be treated usually with quite benign results in most cases. THIS is a definite unknown with many questions lingering in a professional's mind who made a living looking at this sort of thing everyday for thirty years. Jim Black
