Hi,
Thanks for your query.
You may have two possibilities’
1) You may develop dyelectrolytemia
Or 2) It is vasovagal attack.
The two conditions have produces same kind of symptoms; so sometimes it’s very tough for us to differentiate both by only clinically examine the patient.
I suggest you to undergo serum electrolyte estimation (NA, K, Ca), lipid profile estimation, Bilateral carotid artery Doppler and ECG to rule out the causes.
I am sorry I will only be able to answer your query “what I should eat immediately to feel better” after I get the reports and reach the diagnoses about why you have that symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.
If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer and write a review.
Please consult your physician. It is recommended that you get the above test and follow his / her advice as per the reports.
Best Wishes,
