I had really bad hot flash, two actually. I got really hot, and really sweaty, but it was a dry sweat. Then my eyes kinda- not blanked-exactly, but I couldn't see, it wasn't blurry, there was just no vision, but not all the way, I could see a little bit. I got sick twice, and fell asleep for about 45 minutes. I am completely fine. I mainly wanna know what causes heat flashes like that. I thought it was when your blood pressure spikes really fast, but I don't know. My heart was beating really fast too. I just want to know what could've been wrong. I am completely fine now, I never took any medicine or anything, I just slept a bit, and I'm all good now.

i have a feeling your dehydrated. this happens when people don't drink enough water. have you been drinking water lately? whens the last time you drank water? start drinking 8 glasses of water a day and hopefully those symptoms will relieve!

Sounds like a pretty clear case of hypoglycemia. Google it along with it's symptoms. Likely culprit if you hadn't eaten for 2-3 hours or so.
Could also be an anxiety attack (if accompanied by fear whilst in a social situation), heat stroke (if out in the sun and heat for a prolonged time without a hat or water), very low blood pressure (if accompanied by dizziness and weakness).
Each of these causes can be serious. I suggest you find out through your doc what this was and sounds like still is (you mentioned you had two attacks already).
