Fainting: Fainting is benign on most occasions and is caused by sudden drop in blood pressure and short lived poor brain perfusion. Since it happened in the shower, it may have been that excessive heat caused peripheral vascular dilating with brain blood flow compromise. If you have only a small meal, chances are your sugar level was low to allow that to happen. If it's a single episode, i'd not worry much.
