Which term means dizziness with fatigue?

• A. Syncope
• B. Angina
• C. Dyspnea
• D. MET

Answer: (A)

Dizziness accompanied by fatigue points to a symptom cluster where cerebral blood flow briefly falls short, leading to a transient loss of consciousness or near loss of consciousness. Syncope is the medical term for that event—a temporary brain hypoperfusion that often starts with lightheadedness or dizziness and fatigue and may progress to fainting. That makes it the best fit for describing dizziness with fatigue in many clinical contexts, including rehabilitation, where safety during exertion hinges on recognizing the risk of syncope.

The other terms describe different experiences: angina is chest pain from reduced heart blood flow, not dizziness; dyspnea is difficulty breathing; MET is a measure of exercise intensity, not a symptom.
