Brief Answer:
Could be due to low blood pressure or low blood sugar.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

I have gone through your query and understand your concerns. It seems that you are getting episodes of hypotension or low blood pressure. Another possibility is sudden drop in blood sugar. In any case, you need to be evaluated properly. I would insist you to visit a doctor for the same. Tell him about the possibilities I have mentioned.

The next step would be to get a 24 hour Holter ECG monitoring done. If any such episodes occur, mark it and that could be closely evaluated.

Let me know if I could help further.

Regards
