I myself have blacked out in the shower, and it was due to low blood sugar. I know low blood sugar can cause a person to black out. Low blood sugar can be caused by being diabetic or just not eating correctly. In my case it was not eating correctly.

My best friend has had several blackout episodes in the shower from migranes. Her doctor said that the hot steam does something to trigger them, so she has to take lukewarm showers now. . . Having said this, there could be any number explainations, so get professional help from a doctor.

It could be his Blood Pressure. Have it checked regularly. It could also be a missed heartbeat or blockage of the arteries/veins leading to or from the heart. A thorough medical check up will help.

he could be becoming diabetic and his blood sugar was low there some other things but you might want to ask on the bilogy board. But defenitly go see a doctor and buy a blood test machine see if it happens again and test his sugar like twice a day
