dizziness

[pria]

My 13 yr old son 5. 3inches , weighs 120lbs(a tad overweight, we know) has recently started complaining of a suuden stomach ache along with sweaty and clammy feeling, followed by a headache and an acute sense of ''sharp vision''(I think he means blacking out, but he hasn't actually blacked out) and dizziness. aLL THIS VANISHES AS QUICKLY AS IT APPEARS. He is otherwise a normal child, no medication or other health issues. What should I look out for and worry about otherthan the obvious which is taking him to the doc. which I will be next week

Hi pria and welcome,

Things you should watch for are loss of consciousness, shortness of breath at which point seek medical attention a.s.a.p. I'm glad you have an appointment with the Dr. soon and I hope all turns out well. Let us know.
