You might have had a partial or complex seizure. This needs evaluation in an epilepsy clinic. You may consult a neurologist and get investigations like CT scan and EEG. This will tell if there is any focus of seizure or any structural problem causing the attack. You must avoid cooking on fire while alone at home and always keep your relatives informed of seizures. A complete medical examination is also important to know if you had fainting episode due to anemia or low blood pressure.
