What Causes Sudden Unconscious State?

My husband was sitting in chair yesterday said he fell asleep. He seemed awake after that. A few minutes later I talked to him and had to yell and shake him to awake him. He said he was having some kind of a spell . He is not a heavy sleeper. My sense was that he was unconscious for a short (less than 5 minutes) time. What could cause this. He seems fine now.

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. The state could just be deep sleep. Try to remember all those heavy works and stress before that. You may get the answer. Sometimes, low blood sugar level, metabolic imbalance etc can also push the body into unconsciousness. Do consult a physician and get the vitals checked.

If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this website. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe some psychotherapy techniques which should help you cure your condition further.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
