Can Dehydration Cause Dizziness And Unconsciousness?
my father passed out today while walking down a trail. He felt dizzy then nausea. My mother ran ahead for help when she returned he was unconscious and he soiled himself. This has happened before and I dont believe its simple dehydration. Would a person soil themselves because of dehydration?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, if this is the TIA (Transient Ischemic Attack) then it has to be sent for confirmation and for that CT of brain is must, along with that, routine blood test also need to be done to rule out the diabetes, hypertension also need to be taken into consideration, hope this information helps.
