My brother recently had surgery for a blockage in his carotid artery and also an aneurism about the same place as the blockage. The surgery was a success and he seem to be doing fine. However over the last few days he has passed out two time. Once when he got up from the bed to go and shave and he passed out in the bathroom flat to the floor. Then the next time was when leaving a ballgame he stood got dizzie and passed out again. He was taken to a hospital and they did an ekg and cat scan plus gave him some fluids. Didn't find anything there. He is not eating or drinking well. What should he do?

Thanks,
Harold
