I was sitting in my chair the other night and everything started to go dark and waves of numbness or cold were moving over my entire body. Got up managed to catch my breath but it happened a couple more times that evening. I m pretty freaked out. Not sure what happened.

Hello,

I think this episode may be related to hypoglycemia. Possibly you haven't eaten well and the signs of black out and sweating may be related to lie glucose levels. You should get tested doing fasting glucose levels and post-prandial glucose levels. It can be a sign of diabetes.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Olgeta Xhufka , General & Family Physician
