Fainting and seizures

2018-05-14 06:16:10
I tend to have seizures and faint due to remittent fever. Last week I had an exam and 2 days before I had my symptoms upcome. I went to get a glass of water and suddenly fell down the stairs.. I needed a doctors note as I missed the exam. Please advise me on what I can do to get the note and also sort the issue. Kind regards
