When it dysfunctions, you can have symptoms such as syncope (a brief loss of consciousness or fainting), weakness, light headedness, fatigue, nausea, and palpitations. Autonomic disorders, such as Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) and syncope are common condition. They are often the result of an underlying medical condition that could be related to your heart, nervous system or blood flow to the brain.
