My mother is 66 yrs. old. Two months ago once she blacked out and fell down , early in the morning while going towards toilet. Today also she fell down in the toilet by 4 AM and got hurt. In both the occasions she could not remember how she fell down. She suffers from hypertension and is under medication. We checked her BP in both the occasions, it was OK (150/70 ).
What can be the cause ?
