Thanks for sharing ur concern. More history is needed and evaluation of ur may book an online video consultation to discuss it and then give him treatment
The history suggests mixed type of syncope with both cardioinhibitory and vasodepressive element. When you had such significant tilt test you must have been advised some kind of tilt training or medications? They often advise pacemaker if you continue having symptoms despite therapy. You need to see nearby electrophysiologist for further management. Might as well require Holter monitoring to rule out arrhythmia and echo to rule out any associated structural heart disease..

Mixed Holter report? Has to be seen to comment on that..
Also have you consistently followed therapy? Your drugs can be modified if you are not responding to therapy. There are other options. Also you need to be regular with the tilt excercise. If nothing works you might be advised a pacemaker after necessary workup. You need to have a follow up with your electrophysiologist where possible change of medicines as a first step would most probably be opted.

This heart rate is not normal. You definitely need another prolonged Holter to confirm any rhthym abnormality. Sinus at 177 without trigger is rare. As these days you are having symptoms, you should go for one. Record events during monitoring.

Ok thanks
CRP is a marker of inflammation. Less than 3 is ok. Should have done trip t rather to rule out heart attack.

What were you doing when this started? Did palpitations started first? If chest discomfort and palpitations come first followed by syncope the rule out ischemia and arrhythmia. If symptoms come on standing from lying or squatting then vasovagal or POTS (postural tachycardia syndrome)

Crp level 2,5 that was nt normal ....i think crp test confirms the heart disease ??? Im i right ...
During sleep one time i felt blackout with same condition tht i described ws it cardiac aresset episode or cardiac syncope??? Due to arthma

If preceded by chest discomfort then one must rule out coronary artery disease. Stress MIBI is recommended. That will also show the heart rate and BP response. Defibrillator and crash cart must be checked so that one is ready to deal with any ischemia induced arrhythmia.
Aternatively CT cor angio is good to rule out CAD.
