What Can Cause Dizziness And Black Out?

I was standing and all of a sudden I felt my heart stopped for a moment. I felt dizzy and everything was black and dark for a moment. I had to close my eyes put my head down and take deep one or two deep breaths. I feel better now but I still feel lightheaded and just weird

Hi, thank you for posting.

I have gone through your query and I understand your concerns.

Based on what your refer I can say that your symptoms are caused by low blood pressure.
Causes of low blood pressure are many and different.

You need the following tests in order to confirm the diagnosis and to find the real cause:
- Fasting glucose test.
- Complete blood count.
- Urine test.
- Blood for measuring azotemia and creatinine levels.
- Electrocardiogram.
- Check your blood pressure everyday for two weeks.

Contact your cardiologist to discuss about the diagnosis and treatment.

All the best.
Dr. Behar.
