Brief Answer:
Anaemia, hypoglycemia, BP need to be checked, dehydration

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX
I have gone through your query.
Based on the information there are few possibilities that you can get it investigated or discuss with your physician.

Before that I would like to know since when you are facing this problem?
Does it occur all the time in a day or at particular time of day?
Are you having any medical illness? Or are you on any medication?
Is there any history of injury?

One being anaemia, it can present with similar symptoms I would like you to get HB estimation done it will give better picture. Second being hypoglycemia, you need to get random blood sugar investigation done. Third being Hypertension and as well as hypotension, so get your blood pressure checked. Fourth being dehydration, it can b related to the external environment, so I would suggest you to drink plenty of water and fluids.

This provisional advice provided by me is based entirely on the input provided to me. I would suggest examination by the doctor.

I hope this suggestion might be of some help to you. Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.

Take care.

Brief Answer:
Hb estimation, blood pressure need to be checked

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX

You have done FBS, which is within normal range.
As suggested earlier kindly get the HB estimation and get your blood pressure checked. I'll be able to provide you with more specific advice once you get give me the report of this or you can see local doctor with this report.

Meanwhile I would suggest you to keep a candy with you, when ever you get this symptoms have one candy and see for any improvement.
