No wonder people who need to visit a doctor have to wait weeks for an appointment, then an hour or more in a waiting room when it seems going to the doctor has become the pastime of so many.

The way posters want to send fellow posters to a doctor one would suspect they got paid for referrals.

I am an RN and I have knowledge on this subject. The reasons one may pass out are quite numerous - but no one passes out for no reason Could be a brain issue, a heart issue, low blood sugar, extreme dehydration. Whatever the reason , I guarantee you , it isn't gone now. It will rear it's head again- maybe she'll be driving, or maybe she'll be alone at home and have a heart attack, a stroke or a seizure. God gave her a warning - she needs to heed it.

@151949 Oh crikey maybe she was just dehydrated. But I'm not an RN so I guess I should just shut up. lol

@excpa Glad you are ok.

EMTs are unsung heroes. I have had them come to my rescue a couple of times and they have been so nice and reassuring. Other times they have literally saved my life and I am forever grateful. I hope you are feeling better and know what caused your episode and are taking good care of yourself.
