Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
I have noted your symptoms.
Repeated episodes of loss of consciousness indicates a brain disease and not gastric problem.
The common cause is seizure disorder or epilepsy.
You would need detailed evaluation including MRI brain and EEG. There are good medications to prevent such episodes in the future.
I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow up queries or if you require any additional information.
Wishing you good health,
