Sudden Fainting?


My Boyfriend(He is a 28 yr. old Black man) was home this morning and felt dizzy all of sudden and fainted. He wasn't exercising or anything besides getting dressed. He couldn't remember much after that but waking up on the floor. Right away he went straight to the hospital ER. He has been there all day today and they have done many tests and are keeping him overnight(or more?) but I didn't get much info since I was talking to him and he was very tired(he has no relatives here in the US) I live in another state while in college so the info. I get is limited & I can't get there soon. Does anyone know what illness(s) could cause sudden dizziness & fainting symptom? I am so worried, this has never happened to him in his life. Please Any advice I'd be grateful for......

Hypoglycemia, dehydration, high fever, allergic reaction, low blood pressure, it could be any of them. I am sure the Drs at the hospital will figure it out. He is young and as long as has been faily heathy, I am sure he will be fine!

Why does it matter if he's black?
