General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,

The fainting episode with no respond could be related to epilepsia as long as heart is ok. Should consult with neurologist and run EEG. Monitor his blood sugar and blood pressure levels, and record the results for reference.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Albana Sejdini,
