Hello !
I read your question and understand your concern.
In my opinion the symptoms you have had may be related to a drop in your blood pressure. You should measure your blood pressure in sitting position and than in standing up position . A decrease more than 20 mm Hg in your blood pressure would be indicative of orthostatic hypotension. Low blood pressure can cause similar symptoms.
I would also recommend a full blood work for anemia , a thyroid function test to rule out hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism.
Hope to have been helpful!
Greetings!
