u might ought to get your dad checked out by a doctor

Contact a doctor immediately.

Does your Dad possibly take blood pressure meds? He may be low on potassium. This can happen if one is low on potassium. Have him see his Doctor right away.

Is he diabetic? My dad is and this happens to him all the time. His potassium is low. My dad has never fainted though. Fainting is a way for the body to cope with stress. If this has never happened before perhaps your dads body didn't know what to do so it fainted in order to reset the pain sensors. I would call the DR. because he fainted.

leg cramps and faining are two signs of dehydration take him to the Dr. could be some signs of far more complicated and dangerous disease.

He needs to see a doctor today! I have no idea on his health conditions normally but severe leg cramps and passing out are not good. It could be very low potassium and causing heart arrythmias as well as cramping. The passing out is serious, if his heart didn't pump properly and didn't provide enough blood to the brain it could have killed him. It could happen again and he wouldn't be okay afterwards this one is for the docs take him to an ER and get checked out, ASAP
