My husband had a fainting spell this morning. He said he was nauseous then room spun around and then he fainted. He has been under a great deal of stress and has had only a few hours of sleep for sometime. He heats very healthy no fast foods etc. he is committed to bed at normal hours ensuring at least 7-8 hrs. Could this he happened due to the extreme stress load and lack of proper sleep?
