Suggest Remedy For Persistent Dizziness And Loss Of Focus

I sometimes fade-out / unplug or loose focus, this occur about 1-2 times daily and for about 2-3 months now. These episodes last from seconds to 1 minute. I find myself struggling to find placement/recovery during those moments. I m experiencing a sort of light-headedness or dizzy like trance during these occasions. Most of the times that this happen is when I m in deep concentration on a given subject/matter.
