Falling, Tingley/Heavy Arms, Sick & Memory Loss

My 73 year old mother woke at 5:00 to use the washroom. When she proceeded to wash her hands, she started to fall, so lowered herself onto the bathroom floor. She couldn't get up, and when she tried to use her arms, they were tingling and heavy. She tried to drag herself to the phone, but got sick. All she remembers from that point was waking up in her bed this morning feeling fine, with absolutely no memory as to how she got back to bed. Could this have been a mini stroke (not so mini to me....) a stroke warning or a heart attach warning...or just bp bottoming out, or low blood sugar...she's not diabetic...and her blood pressure is usually quite normal.
