For Black out condition
My father's age is 79.But still he is healthy and fit. But one problem of his body give us tention.
Sometimes he becomes senseless.Then he stays in a black out condition for 5-10 minutes.
He becomes fit after that automatically. But then his pressure stays low. Actually his pressure is always low but stays in a rance.
But after that his pressure becomes abnormal (90/60 like this) for a while.
This happens once or twice in a year . So we are too much worried about that.
We visited heart specialist,Nerve specialist,
etc etc doctors and did various tests. His heart is ok and all things are ok by the reports.
This is continuing near about 15 years before.
So tell me please what is the disease and what is the treatment for it ...???

What you are describing is called ‘Prolonged Loss of Consciousness’. This is not to do with heart or blood pressure
These cases can be difficult to diagnose and sometimes it is a type of Epilepsy called ‘Non-Motor Seizure Disorder’.
Do the following,
1. Take a video of the episode when it happens
2. Ask him to wear a smart watch that can record his pulse all the time
3. If the episodes are becoming frequent, will need to be treated with Epilepsy medication for at least 12 months to see if it helps.
4. He must not drive any motor vehicle including bike, cars, farm equipment etc
All the best.

Most probable diagnosis is Vasovagal / reflex syncope with low blood pressure. Reports are normal ,Because reflex syncope does not show abnormalities in:
ECG
Echocardiography
CT/MRI brain
EEG (often normal)
This is very common and frustrating but real.
Next Steps
24 hrs.holter monitoring.
Health Tips
lifestyle measures play a imp.role .likeavoid prolonged standing, standing slowly,adequate hydration.
