I've been having these weird episodes where I stand up and suddenly feel really dizzy and lightheaded. My vision goes a bit blurry, and I lose my balance to the point where I almost fall over. It's pretty scary. What could be causing this? Is it something I should be worried about?

Question

I've been working in a pharmaceutical industry for 29 years, and recently, due to my morning shifts, I'm only getting about 5-6 hours of sleep. Last night, out of nowhere, I fainted. It all started with feeling lightheaded, stiff, and shaky, my eyes even rolled up, and I was sweating a lot. I called my husband just before I lost consciousness, and I don't remember anything for a few seconds. He kind of shook me, and everything felt like it was spinning. After a bit, I got stable and then ended up puking everything out. This whole thing has me really worried. Could this be something serious?

Question

I've been feeling this heaviness in my right cheek and I'm not sure why. I also have neck pain and sometimes a bit of pain in my head. It's making me feel really anxious.

Any ideas on what could be going on?
