If you have cough associated with syncope it basically means that severe cough is causing drop in oxygen saturation and causing less oxygen to reach the brain. You may need to undergo x ray of chest, pulmonary function tests, blood pressure assessment, echo radiography, sputum examination etc
Next Steps
Consult nearby pulmonologist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
