I am begging her to take him to er but he refuses but says he will go to dr tomorrow. I am afraid of mini stroke? advice?
[|AI|]  Hello, as your father had loss of consciousness for few seconds or minutes. As your father is elderly and history of stroke with heart problems. Thanks for detailed history, he had cancer, which might caused metastasis to the brain and caused these absence seizures(Unresponsive to stimuli) . These symptoms can also be explained by stroke like TIA (transient ischemic attack) , where transient loss of consciousness. Fortunately your dad recovered from symptoms, thus seek medical attention as soon as possible and take treatment. Hope your father not have significant findings and are within normal limits.
