Have you ever fainted? What was it like? How did everyone else react?
this story is truly funny (now- looking back).
I was taking anti-inflammatory medication for wrist pain, I went over to my friends house because they had invited me over for supper. after her little 5 year old daughter had finished eating- she came over to my side of the table and pinched me- it is a game she liked to see if she could make me flinch- well the first pinch on the arm did not achieve the desired effect- so she really clamped down on my arm the next time. she got her fingers beneath the muscle on my arm and was giving me this super colossal pinch- which still didn't hurt- but in the process she must have ruptured blood vessels in my arm. I got a large lump where she had pinched me- and I seriously couldn't move- I could see my vision going black- I couldn't move- and I slowly fell to the floor.
her parents were watching this the whole time , and they asked me if I was faking- I couldn't respond- and once I had fainted and was lying on the floor- I was slowly regaining consciousness- I could hear them freaking out "oh no, steve is dead". well obviously I wasn't. so we used that episode to control any further pinching - the little girl was shocked, since I am like an uncle to her- so we played it up . the funny part is that I am a pretty stout guy 215#- and because of the meds I was on- a 5 year old girl "pinched" my arm and made me black out. it is pretty funny.
the fainting spell only lasted like 30 seconds- but it is the only time I have ever fainted in my life.
Easter sunday when I was about 10 years old, visiting my grandfather in the hospital. I hadnt eaten all day and the room was hot and had no air flow.. I felt nauseous so I said I wanted to go get water. my mother went with me and was walking aside me. as I was walking, my hearing started getting muffled, and everything started blacking out closing in on me. Next thing I know I wake up in terrible pain surrounded by nurses as I fell forward and knocked out all my front teeth. first thing I hear is ER from one of the nurses. went from a visitor to a patient like that. not too great of an easter. passed out 3 other times over the past 8 years after this. entertaining stuff though, some funny stories from it.
Twice. I'll spare you the blood loss story. I generally have low blood pressure, so one day I was just sitting having dinner, talking to my parents, the next thing I knew I was lying down and my parents were standing over me (and my head was pounding). Apparently I'd just fallen off my chair side ways. My poor mum was a little hysterical, so they took me to the doctor. Not too exciting.
I was in PE sitting at my desk watching the movie and it was hot, because that building doesn't have A/C & I live in florida. everything went black. next thing I knew people were calling my name and asking if I was okay... my head had rolled back, my eyes were open and my face was completely white. AAAHHH xP yuck eww it still disgusts me and it only happened today
yeah I was home sick from school ( I was in elemitery school) I remember I was waiting for my mom to give me something to eat. I start to see spots like when the tv gets fuzzy and the channle wont work. I then remember telling her I was hungry then I fainted with my eyes open my mom was saying my name over and over again. then I wake up and that is my story
I fainted a few months ago haha I had been lying down infront of the fire for a few hours and I stood up really fast! I thought it was just a headrush but I blanked out and then woke up at the other side of the room with my arm stuck in the radiator hahaha
