Are Fainting Spells Upon Bending Down Related To Heart Condition?

Hello... My friend s mother (in her 70 s) was bending over, almost passed out, had a lot of heat in the chest, and could not keep her eyes straight for about 10 mins. No headache or shortness of breath and no chest pain. She laid down and is better now. But her doc s appt is not for another week. She does have a history of a heart issues. Could it be due to her heart? Wouldn t this be more of a neurological issue? What are the possibilities of what it could be? Thank you very much for your help... Alejandra.
