Hello,

According your history maybe some foods or beverages may have caused these signs. In your case persistent vomiting can cause loss of fluids and electrolytes.Losing fluids and electrolytes gives the feeling of passing out. So first of all you need re-hydration using tresol,

A lot of water(drinking little by little), tea and in the same time to meet a doctor to do a physical examination and to control the blood pressure, electrolytes level, an to find the cause of this situation.I hope my answer help you.I wish a quick recovery.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Monika Dedo
