Why My Husband Gets Light Headed While Sitting At The Organ?

My husband is the church organist and sometimes when he is sitting at the organ he gets a little light headed and feels like he is going to fall over backwards. This is the only place he has noticed it happening and has happened several times. He is 53, 6 3 , weighs around 230, and is on no medication.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
hello and welcome.

It could be due to a lowered blood pressure or low blood sugar. please get a cbc and fbs one via your doctor to rule out anemia and hypoglycemia. A Fainting i.e syncope attack
requires a cardiac workup whereas vertigo requires a neurological workup in consult with your doctor.

let me know if you have any further query
thanks.
