Brief Answer:
Prompt medical evaluation needed.

Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for using HCM.

I have read your query and understand your concerns.

There are two main conditions as possible causes of your girlfriend's symptoms:

- lowering of blood sugar levels
- transient ischemic attack ( TIA)

Both conditions need a medical evaluation by testing too, so, I suggest you to have a medical evaluation ASAP, as the condition may progress further.

Hope this helps. Best regards.
