Why did I faint?

Okay so today I hit my elbow and everything from my elbow to the tip of my fingers went numb immediately and I got really dizzy. I passed out while talking once and another time I passed out and fell backwards hitting my head twice on the way to the floor.(.I was sitting in the cafeteria.) The witnesses said my eyes rolled in the back of my head and I fell that one time and my body rose up and fell again and it started twitching like a seizure. I can’t feel my entire last 3 fingers on my hand. The side of my hwnd keeps turning from purple to blue.

Answer #3

You need to see a doctor.No fooling. Unexplained fainting spells can be caused by several things, some simple, but some can be very serious - heart or circulatory dysfunction that needs treatment. If you do not have a doctor, try a clinic, possibly even Planned Parenthood can help. Also your school may have a nurse or even a school counselor that can head you in the right direction. Please at least talk to a health care professional. Good Luck!!
