What Causes Sudden Excessive Sweating And Tunnel Vision?

my fiancé suddenly started sweating buckets and then he experienced tunnel vision and then he fell on the floor (thankfully a friend of his was able to break the fall) his eyes were open but he wasn t aware of his surroundings for about 10 seconds and then he snapped back...this happened on Saturday night and he didn t want to go to the er and had his friends disconnect with 911... he was tired sunday and will be seeing his doctor tomorrow... he is a fit 50 yo male, about 6 and 180 lbs....and sees his doctor regularly ... what does this sound like to you?
