Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, he should rule out cardiac event for his symptoms.
So better to take him to cardiologist and get done blood pressure monitoring, ecg, 2d echo and stress test.
If all these are normal then no need to worry much.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing him good health. Thanks.
