HI
Well come to HCM
This is called syncope attack and the under lying cause of this is less blood supply to the brain and this could be due to poor contractility of heart or the cerebral pathology this could not be due to heart attack only, other conditions are there that could be the reason for this and this is hypoglycemia, vaso vegal shock, take care.
