Any Ideas Whats Going On As Have Had 5 Episodes Over Last 7years?
I am a 53 yr old male and have had 5 episodes over the last 7 years that are concerning me. Symtoms are lightheaded then i get real hot, then I have to lay down before I fall down and feel as if im going to pass out. This last about 5 to 10 minutes then I feel drained for about an hour. Then im ok. Any ideas??

Hai look s like ur having syncopal attacks, this cud be due to variation in bp, sugar levels, high or too low, sudden reduced blood supply to the brain,(vbi), any changes with ur heart rate, either low or high (arrhythmias) or blocks, nervous attacks, ear problems, nutritional deficiencies. Pls evaluate gor all these with a physician
