A member asked:
My sister gets like 5 hours of sleep everyday, and she just "blacked out" and fell. what could be the reason?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Black out?: First sleeping 5 hours may be normal for her, she may be a physiological short sleeper, alternatively she may be sleeping not enough and a "blacking out episode" could represent sleep deficiency, or could be seizure or other issues, she needs to see her physician.
