What Causes Sudden Syncope With Disorientation, Bruising And Tiredness?
My mom 91 faints suddenly and is falling down without warning, when she wakes back she does not know what happen. Two days ago she bruised herself and today she was unresponsive and we could not find her pulse, but after we put her down she woke up tired but coherent . She started to fall down about 2 years ago and first we were thinking that she does not pay attention how she walks but she has no warning .

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, this could be due to TIA (Transient Ischemic Attack) and to rule out this she may need CT of brain some time this could be due to geriatric condition, rule out the hypertension too, condition and symptom need to be taken seriously, hope this information helps, take care.
