What Causes Dizziness, Nausea And Metallic Taste In The Mouth?

I can feel it coming with a flush, slow onset of the following symptoms over 30-90 seconds. I become dizzy, like motion sickness, extreme weakness, metallic taste in my mouth, near or total blackout. I come out of the blackout with nausea, headache, and the nausea lasts for 15 minutes to all day. I am so tired after this happens that I will fall asleep without warning, even while typing. Instantly asleep then realize it and shake myself awake. I stopped driving because of this. first time was 5 years ago and it happened twice in a year, now it happens 2-10 a week. Sometimes 2-3 in a ingle day, then mild nausea for a day or two, then multiple episodes.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

By your history and description, possibility of brain related diseases is more likely. So better to consult neurologist and get done clinical examination and MRI of brain. You may need EEG (electro encephalo gram). Don't worry, you will be alright with all these. Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
