Brief Answer:
Could be vasovagal syncope
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Since you have fallen once and you are dizzy and shaking you may be suffering from vasovagal syncope.
It happens when your body overreacts to emotional or physical stress such as seeing something unpleasant or standing for too long. This reaction causes your blood pressure to drop and less blood to flow to your brain, which makes you faint.
I will advise you to lie down and raise your legs, sit down and put your head between your knees and loosen any tight clothing or belts.
Also you must go to an ER and do an echocardiography test and CT scan of brain to rule out any heart or brain disorder.
