Question : I was at my Grandsons ballgame, when all of a sudden my stomach started hurting, I got dizzy, started sweating and my daughter said my eyes started to roll back. Then I came to, I don't remember, there was a firefighter and a gal that worked as a nurse standing near me and someone called the ambulance. The ambulance guys checked all my vitals and they were all normal. Did an ekg and it was normal.

Brief Answer:
It may be due hypoglycemia or hypovolemia.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I can understand your concern. As per your history, I think it may be due to hypoglycemia. Other causes may be hypovolemia may be due to dehydration, anemia, vertigo. Let me know whether do you have history of shakiness, tinnitus, sensations of bright light in front of eyes at that time?
I'd suggest you to do blood sugar level, complete blood count, CT scan brain, electroencephalography after consultation. Kindly do blood pressure monitoring. Drink lot of fluids. Kindly follow up if you have any query. Take care.
