Explanation

Negative syncope is a term used in medicine to describe a situation where a person faints or loses consciousness, but the usual tests do not show any clear reason for this happening. It's like the body's electrical system temporarily shuts down, causing the person to pass out. However, when doctors check the heart and brain, everything seems normal. This can make it challenging for doctors to figure out why the fainting episodes are happening.
