Brief Answer:
Giddiness and sweating needs to be evaluated

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

I have gone through the details provided by you. The cause of the giddiness and sweating is not evident from the mentioned details and needs to be evaluated further. I would not consider it normal. Sudden drop in blood sugar or blood pressure could cause such symptoms. I would insist that you take your brother to a doctor and get him examined. Furthermore, from around this age, periodic health check-up should be done so that lifestyle diseases like diabetes or heart disease can be diagnosed early. His blood pressure (BP) also needs to be monitored periodically. He also needs to take a wholesome diet for his BP to normalise.

Hope that helps
