A 17-year-old teen went to the ED after suffering his second syncopal episode in the last 6 months. He had shrugged off the first episode as not eating enough before a jog, but this time he hadn’t been doing anything active and his parents witnessed the syncope and what appeared to be a seizure. He reported that he had been feeling heart palpitations prior to the event. Further blood tests showed hypokalemia.
