syncope
yeah. so like i said before, the one that started with an
"s" = syncope
"v" = vasvogal/vasodepressor
and the "nuero"/"cardio" one was : neurocardiogenic
yeah. heh. that's pretty great. here's an explaination of it(which is a little better than mine haha) :
Neurally mediated syncope (NMS) is called also neurocardiogenic, vasovagal, vasodepressor or reflex mediated syncope. It's a benign (and the most frequent) cause of fainting. However, life-threatening conditions may also manifest as syncope. NMS is more common in children and young adults, although it can occur at any age. NMS happens because blood pressure drops, reducing circulation to the brain and causing loss of consciousness. Typical NMS occurs while standing and is often preceded by a sensation of warmth, nausea, lightheadedness and visual "grayout." If the syncope is prolonged, it can trigger a seizure. Placing the person in a reclining position will restore blood flow and consciousness and end the seizure.
and... yeah.
if you're really bored. you can read the whole explaination, which basically fits me perfectly at:
