Diabetologist 's  Response
welcome to hcm,
your question refers to multiple problems faced by your father. but , the most important problem ,it seems, are the fainting spells ,what he is facing. the most common problem faced with diabetic patients is definitely hypoglycemic episodes.another causative factor , what comes to my mind ,is some sort of arrhythmia. i would suggest you to go for continuous blood glucose monitoring as well as holter monitoring. both can be done at home .hope this helps to find a cause for his problem.
