Hello
It seems from the history that you are having recurrent episodes of blacking out, loss of vision and weakness...
These symptoms indicate transient ischemic attack. The common causes are hypotension, hypovolemia, anemia and carotid artery diseases. Hence this requires evaluation to find out the underlying cause and treatment accordingly as it may be because of diseases like carotid artery stenosis.

Thank you
