What Causes Recurring Disorientation, Hot Flashes And Black Outs?

My sister has had this happen twice now, yet years apart. She suddenly gets extremely hot (not just hot flashes) and then blacks out. She becomes disoriented when she comes to herself, and is very weak. It usually takes a couple days for her to get back to normal. We have checked her blood sugar, as our family leans toward hypoglycemia. Her levels are okay. This is also accompanied by a headache afterwards.

Hello

Thanks for asking a question at HealthCareMagic

It is pleasure to help you at this moment

She should undergo complete health check.
Check your thyroid levels, TSH, T3, T4 levels
Check FSH, LH, Estradiol levels to know if hormones are at normal levels
An ultrasound abdomen, hb, blood counts, vitamin D, and HBA1C can give some idea about what is here health status.


Hope this helps!

Best Regards
Dr Chaithanya
