Hello
Welcome to health care magic.
I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that you are having symptoms of syncope, dizziness, sudden blackouts of vision....
These symptoms indicate transient ischemic attacks and require evaluation.
The common causes to be ruled out are hypotension, hypoglycemia, hypovolemia, vascular diseases.....
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
