Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
As far as my clinical experience is concerned, your hubby is having transient alterations in blood pressure levels giving such episodes through cerebral circulatory changes.
Though he is becoming normal after taking anti hypertensive medicine, I strongly recommend to consult him with his physician for further evaluation and management guidelines to prevent such on and off episodes.
Do give me further chance to assist in future.
Thank you.
