My daughter from age 14-16 has had several episodes of passing out, she would be out for 10 minutes. We took her to pediatric cardiologists, endocrinologists and neurologists. She was finally diagnosed with Autonomic nervous dysfunction and was medicated with fludrocort. She seems to have mostly outgrown this but her most recent episode was while driving and a deer ran out in front of her, the fear of it caused her to pass out. Her boyfriend was on the phone with her when it happened, he heard her scream and then nothing but the car radio. He went looking for her the way she had gone home and found her passed out, her car had gone off the road and was sitting against an embankment. The biggest danger is where they are when this happens, driving, or on a hard floor or hitting something on the way down.
