HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, such history for fit need to be taken seriously because it could be cerebral disease or cardiac one and the most common would be "Grand mal epilepsy" these all needs to be differentiated, in my opinion better to see the neurologist, there CT of brain may be asked hope this information helps
