Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

You have transient fainting attack. For that, common reason can be hypoglycemia like condition in which blood sugar level falls. Therefore, check your sugar levels.

Secondly, blood pressure should also be measured to rule out Hypotension. If dizziness occurs again, then an ear examination needs to be done.

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

Regards,
Dr. Parth Goswami
